This is my code :

Answer 1

You can wait for the alert to appears then accept it.

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 15);
Alert alert = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.alertIsPresent());
alert.accept();

Answer 2

why using two times switching to alert?

Alert alert = driver.switchTo().alert(); 
String alertMessage= alert.getText(); 
alert.accept();
System.out.println("Alert msg is : "+alertMessage);

Answer 3

Here is the JavaScript answer. The documentation has examples for all languages. https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/en/webdriver/js_alerts_prompts_and_confirmations/

await driver.wait(until.alertIsPresent()); 
el = driver.switchTo().alert();
await el.accept();
