In Selenium WebDriver, you can handle multiple windows by actively switching between them using the 'switchTo()' method of the 'WebDriver' interface.
Here are the steps to handle multiple windows in Selenium WebDriver:
To acquire the handle of the current window, one can employ the 'getWindowHandle()' method from the 'WebDriver' interface. This method enables access to the unique identifier of the current window.
To obtain all window handles in a formal manner, you can utilize the 'getWindowHandles()' method from the 'WebDriver' interface. This method retrieves a set of all currently open window handles.
Iterate through the window handles using a loop and check for the window handle of the desired window you want to switch to.
After identifying the window handle of the desired window, utilize the 'switchTo()' method from the 'WebDriver' interface by passing the window handle as an argument. This operation allows for the web driver to shift its focus to the designated window.
Perform any required actions in the new window.
After completing the tasks in the new window, switch back to the original window by using the window handle of the original window that you stored earlier.
Notably, Selenium WebDriver handles the transition to a new window. Upon switching to a new window, the WebDriver automatically adjusts the focus, enabling seamless interaction. Subsequently, when you have completed your tasks in the new window, you can effortlessly switch back to the original window and seamlessly proceed with your testing activities.
