How do you accept a `confirm()` dialog?

page.on("dialog", (dialog) => dialog.accept());
await page.getByRole("button", { name: "Delete" }).click();

1Register a dialog handler before the click
2Press Enter after the dialog appears
3Click the dialog's OK button with a locator

Show the answer

Correct answer: Register a dialog handler before the click

Explanation

Native dialogs aren't part of the DOM, so locators can't reach them. The handler must be registered before the action that opens the dialog.
