The above code doest work please suggest. I tried above code by casting webdriver instant but did not work every time I don't want to use driver.navigate().back() command as it not recommended. Please suggest...

Answer 1

I am not sure why you are not using driver.navigate().back() . It's the recommended one. Anyways, below is the way to do in javascript:

JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
js.executeScript("window.history.back();");

Note: Might require a sleep time of 2-3 seconds. But, it works, nonetheless.
