How to handle the new window in Selenium WebDriver using Java?

This is my code:

//Thread.sleep(3000);
String winHandleBefore = driver.getWindowHandle();
driver.switchT         


        

Answer 1

I have an utility method to switch to the required window as shown below

public class Utility 
{
    public static WebDriver getHandleToWindow(String title){

        //parentWindowHandle = WebDriverInitialize.getDriver().getWindowHandle(); // save the current window handle.
        WebDriver popup = null;
        Set windowIterator = WebDriverInitialize.getDriver().getWindowHandles();
        System.err.println("No of windows :  " + windowIterator.size());
        for (String s : windowIterator) {
          String windowHandle = s; 
          popup = WebDriverInitialize.getDriver().switchTo().window(windowHandle);
          System.out.println("Window Title : " + popup.getTitle());
          System.out.println("Window Url : " + popup.getCurrentUrl());
          if (popup.getTitle().equals(title) ){
              System.out.println("Selected Window Title : " + popup.getTitle());
              return popup;
          }

        }
                System.out.println("Window Title :" + popup.getTitle());
                System.out.println();
            return popup;
        }
}

It will take you to desired window once title of the window is passed as parameter. In your case you can do.

Webdriver childDriver = Utility.getHandleToWindow("titleOfChildWindow");

and then again switch to parent window using the same method

Webdriver parentDriver = Utility.getHandleToWindow("titleOfParentWindow");

This method works effectively when dealing with multiple windows.
