Selenium WebDriver Tutorial #25 - How to Handle Multiple Windows in Selenium

In this Selenium Webdriver Tutorial we will learn How to Handle Multiple Windows in Selenium WebDriver.

When you click a link which opens in a new window will focus the new window or tab on screen, but WebDriver will not know which window the Operating System considers active.

In order to work with the new window you will need to switch to it. Selenium WebDriver provides method to switch between windows and tabs.

if we don't want to use iterator method, we can use loop also to switch window:
String parentWindow = driver.getWindowHandle();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[contains(text(), 'Start my free trial')]")).click();
Set<String> WH = driver.getWindowHandles();
for (String S1 : WH) {
if (!S1.equals(parentWindow)) {

}
}
Thread.sleep(3000);

Most of the website given by you is not working any more

Hello thank you for sharing this video. Sorry but i found this title as misleading, I was looking for automation handling between 2 window browsers but here you referred to new windows as 'TABS'. Your video is showing switching between TABS not windows as per my understanding. Do you have any content on using multiple windows please? Many thanks.

[nagadhanyamraju]

I have parent and child window. I switch to child window, do the needed operations and do driver.close. In this case do we have to write switch to parent window code?

[arunsinghal]

thanks sir, can you provide assert and screen shot video in framework.
