Dialog

Dialog objects are dispatched by page via the [event: Page.dialog] event.

An example of using Dialog class:

def handle_dialog(dialog)
  puts "[#{dialog.type}] #{dialog.message}"
  if dialog.message =~ /foo/
    dialog.accept
  else
    dialog.dismiss
  end
end

page.on("dialog", method(:handle_dialog))
page.evaluate("confirm('foo')") # will be accepted
# => [confirm] foo
page.evaluate("alert('bar')") # will be dismissed
# => [alert] bar

NOTE: Dialogs are dismissed automatically, unless there is a [event: Page.dialog] listener. When listener is present, it must either Dialog#accept or Dialog#dismiss the dialog - otherwise the page will freeze waiting for the dialog, and actions like click will never finish.
