Description

Problem

Current browser tools may not properly handle modal popups (login forms, cookie dialogs, confirmation modals) that block page interaction.

Solution

Make sure that browser tools can handle modal popups, and also add tests to this effect.

Use Cases
  • Cookie consent banners
  • Login modal dialogs
  • Form confirmation popups
  • Error/alert dialogs

This would significantly improve handling of real-world web interactions where modals are common.

Research direction

Start by locating the browser tools and their existing interaction tests. Review how cookie banners, login and confirmation modals, and error or alert dialogs currently block interaction; done means the tools handle these cases and the behavior is covered by tests.
