如何使用Selenium WebDriver在同一浏览器的另一个选项卡上打开URL？

Question

I want to open a URL on new tab by clicking on button for add account. I am working with framework, also I've found some solution but don't understand how to apply it.

Below are the code where I've find the element and return it for performing the operations. Can any one let me know with integrate the code for opening the url in new tab, using this code?

private boolean operateWebDriver(String operation, String Locator,
            String value, String objectName) throws Exception {
        boolean testCaseStep = false;

        try {
            System.out.println("Operation execution in progress");
            WebElement temp = getElement(Locator, objectName);
            if (operation.equalsIgnoreCase("SendKey")) {
                temp.sendKeys(value);
            }
            Thread.sleep(1000);
            driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
            if (operation.equalsIgnoreCase("Click")) {
                temp.click();

                //try to open account on another tab.
                String myWindowHandel= driver.getWindowHandle();
                driver.switchTo().window(myWindowHandel);

            }
            if (operation.equalsIgnoreCase("Verify")) {
                System.out.println("Verify--->" + temp);
                temp.isDisplayed();

            }
            testCaseStep = true;

        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Exception occurred operateWebDriver"
                    + e.getMessage());

            // Take screenshot if any testcase is not working. 
            System.out.println("Taking Screen Shot");
            File scrFile = ((TakesScreenshot)driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);
            FileUtils.copyFile(scrFile, new File("D:\\softs\\eclipse-jee-kepler-SR1-win32\\Workspace\\AutomationFramework\\Screenshot\\screenshot.jpeg")); 
        }

        return testCaseStep;
    }

    public WebElement getElement(String locator, String objectName)
            throws Exception {
        WebElement temp = null;
        System.out.println("Locator-->" + locator);
        if (locator.equalsIgnoreCase("id")) {
            temp = driver.findElement(By.id(objectName));

        } else if (locator.equalsIgnoreCase("xpath")) {
            temp = driver.findElement(By.xpath(objectName));
            System.out.println("xpath temp ----->" + temp);
        } else if (locator.equalsIgnoreCase("name")) {
            temp = driver.findElement(By.name(objectName));
        }
        return temp;

    }

}

You can add this if condition into your operateWebDriver()

    if (operation.equalsIgnoreCase("newTab")) {
        System.out.println("newTab" + temp);
        Actions newTab = new Actions(driver);
        newTab.keyDown(Keys.COMMAND).click(temp).keyUp(Keys.COMMAND).build().perform();

        // Do your switch windows and other stuff you plan here after opening the new tab

    }

For example if you landed on http://stackoverflow.com and you want to open Questions button in a new tab which is similar to what you want to do, you can call the method like this:

        //operateWebDriver(String operation, String Locator, String value, String objectName)
        operateWebDriver("newTab", "xpath", "", "//*[@id='nav-questions']");
