`driver.switch_to.alert.accept()` dismisses alert in iOS 9
See original GitHub issueUsing Appium v1.4.8 (REV 29b2c4d02dd4d41b91c08e0f4b25d24d32051d17) with Xcode 7b4 I find that calling driver.switch_to.alert.accept() (Python bindings) results in the dialog being dismissed instead of accepted on the iOS 9 Simulator. This happens on iOS 9 only; the same setup but running the iOS 8.4 Simulator results in the expected behavior.

Hi guys,
I think I found the problem with the alert.
In the node_modules/appium-uiauto/uiauto/lib/mechanic-ext/alert-ext.js file you will find:
// iOS9.1 returns ‘cancel’ as the default button. if ((parseFloat($.systemVersion) >= 9.1 && buttonCount > 0) ||
The problem here is that cancel is also default on iOS 9.0v so the right code should be
// iOS9.0 returns ‘cancel’ as the default button. if ((parseFloat($.systemVersion) >= 9.0 && buttonCount > 0) ||
This fixed the issue for me 😄
