All this step are perform automatically by running test scripts. And all this script
are written in excel sheet, in which we simply write the commands.
For all that commands we have written function in java. And the class is also written
for lunching the browse on which we are performing automation testing  

Now we just click on run button in eclipse, and all the above commands perform automatically.

I m attaching one excel sheet, for your reference.

It's excellent you can write your tests in Excel, but would you please paste here the
complete stack trace of the exception? I want to understand what's the actual cause
of the exception, what selenium operation was executed and on which element?

a modal dialog is active

There is no issue related to screenshot,If any error occurs still script executed completely
  and error show only on command prompt.

But After the above mention error it stop execution further

To debug and fix the issue we need to reproduce it first. Unfortunately, there is no
executable reproduction scenario provided. We don't ever know what exact selenium command
is broken, and what page element is not operable. Please explain how can we help you?
