If you are using Java you can go with Robot Library.

Robot r = new Robot();
r.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ESCAPE);
r.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_ESCAPE);

It won't work if you're using RemoteDriver (i.e. Sauce labs or Selenium
Grid)

you can use robot to perform clicking "ESC" button. It will actually click "ESC" like manually do it.

It worked exactly.

Thanks,
Rejeesh.

Alert a = driver.switchTo().alert();
a.confirm(); // or dismiss() if you want to hit 'cancel'

May be you are right Luke Inmam.....
But In My case i am getting an
"org.openqa.selenium.UnhandledAlertException: Modal dialog present
This box is containing an "Ok" button . I have to click on this "ok"
button to get back to my parent window.
This pop up goes away only by clicking "ok" button or by pressing "enter"
or "Escape" key from keyboard.
When I try to Right Click on this "ok" no options are displayed to get
its Xpath, CSS, Id etc. So there is not way to get the location of "Ok"
button.
this pop can be gone by clciking "Enter" key or "ESC" from keyboard.
So In element.sendKeys(Keys.ESCAPE)
there is not way to get the Location of Webelement.
Can it done by just clicking the "Esc" key from keyboard

element.sendKeys(Keys.ESCAPE)
