[@adityagupta-yw4kr]

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 WH = driver.getWindowHandles(); for (String S1 : WH) { if (!S1.equals(parentWindow)) { driver.switchTo().window(S1); } } Thread.sleep(3000); driver.findElement(By.name("UserFirstName")).sendKeys("Admin");

bro how to do this in pyhton?

[@TheSoleNemesis]

Amazing explanation. Worked each of the steps. You are indeed one of the best. Are you based in New Zealand by any chance?

[@ganeshswami4759]

Thank You so much sir..!!! Simple & Superb Explanation..!!

[@huayang2467]

Sir, thank you for these super clear and easy to follow tutorials. If you could help me with one question, since a set has no index numbers or particular order for its elements, how come window handle iterator is able to iterate through all window handles in a set order of parent to child, and so on? Thank you very much.

[@alihadi9846]

Overview : The tutorial focuses on handling multiple browser windows in Selenium WebDriver, a crucial skill for automating applications that open new windows or tabs. Importance: Switching between windows is necessary when dealing with web applications that open new windows, and it's essential in automation testing. Example Website: The example used is Salesforce, where clicking on the "Start My Free Trial" button opens a new window for further input. Manual vs Selenium Control: In manual testing, you switch to a new window to fill out forms, but Selenium requires explicit instructions to switch between windows. Window Switching Issue: Selenium doesn’t automatically switch to the new window, so the script must be instructed to switch focus between the parent and child windows. Using getWindowHandles Method: Selenium provides the getWindowHandles method to get window handles, which returns a set of handles for all open windows. Window Handle Iteration: The set of window handles can be iterated over using Java’s Iterator class to switch between different windows. Practical Implementation: The script uses the switchTo().window() method with the window handle to switch to the child window and perform actions. Switching Back to Parent Window: After interacting with the child window, the script switches back to the parent window to continue testing. Final Testing and Output: The script successfully fills out fields in the child window, switches back to the parent, and prints out the window handles for verification. This tutorial demonstrates the steps required to handle multiple windows in Selenium WebDriver, including switching between windows and interacting with elements on each window.

Nicely Explained thank you

[@arunsinghal2977]

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

[@deepanshibindal3206]

Please do the automation of Salesforce sign up page Fill all the details

[@laksmintasasti1507]

Thank you, its very helpful :)

[@xyzabc-lk3mj]

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

[@ADD-ol9eb]

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.

[@iPranav007]

True that.. also he could’ve directly traversed with set but instead showed long way

[@sivaramsathiamoorthi7257]

@@iPranav007 Yeah for a new tab we can simply use, driver.switchTo().newWindow(WindowType.TAB).get("URL")

[@Eye_on_india]

Very informative❤🎉

[@LawyerAB]

Thank you sir.

[@ishakeshri4849]

Nice explain 👍

[@vishnuvlog8030]

Dont know why you used long xpath to locate element? Use simple xpath methods it will be easy to understand for users.

[@venkatt2784]

Thank you sir

[@nagadhanyamraju6506]

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?

[@dmitryneve1140]

xpath does not work. don't know why. copy as " /html/body/div[1]/hgf-c360nav//header/div[1]/div[1]/div[1]/div[5]/hgf-button". Trying to write down my own XPath - doesn't work either - not the first time happened by the way. can't find the solution.

[@gilsonsouza8159]

Hi, I have a question regarding Selenium. let's say that I am using selenium to create a routine automation instead of an test automation. And this routine will help not just me but others colleagues also. These colleagues don't know anything about programming. So I wish I could create some "desktop application". like an icon that they just click on it and the script will run. Without need of the Eclipse IDE or anything else. The point is that the webdriver follow a path, and this path is from my computer. also, there is a file, and the path if from my user. so I not sure on how to do it Can you help with that? I appreciate, thank you so much. If you know some other way, it is not necessary to be a desk app, could be online, on a server, I don't know.

[@muthupriyan-tv1nz]

where is the code man how can can i get the code?

[@rampagerisu5848]

That's not a window that's new tab

[@asrafulmondal8946]

[@VloggingBook1104]
