Question

How to open a new tab in existing browser window using Javascript Executor?

Answer 1

Hi Meenal, you can use executeScript() method of Javascript Executor to open a new tab in existing browser:

driver = new ChromeDriver();

driver.manage().window().maximize();

driver.get("https://www.google.com/");

String link = "window.open('https://www.edureka.co','_blank');";

((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript(link);

Thread.sleep(5000);

ArrayList<String> tabs = driver.getWindowHandles();

driver.switchTo().window(tabs.getIndex(0));

Hope it helps!

Answer 2

Use below code for Open new blank window: (I have used JavaScript for this)

ArrayList<String> tabs = new ArrayList<String>(Registration.getWindowHandles());
   Registration.switchTo().window(tabs.get(1));
//    To navigate to new link/URL in 2nd new tab

Can you please explain what is Registration keyword here? Because getWindowHandles() method isn't supported by Registration. Please explain.

When i execute Registration.getWindowHandles() i get only older window. I can´t get the new window
