why we are using switchTo() method again and again is it possible to switch on alert one time and whatever action we have to perform with that alert can do without writing again and again switchTo() method.
Hi Abhishek, The switch to method is used again and again in this tutorial just to navigate to the frame and click on button so that alert is popped up and I can show how to handle the alert then. Hope this helps. Regards,Manish
