如何使用Java在Selenium中选择一个窗口？

Question

While using the Firefox IDE, not quite everything is translatable. I'm having trouble with the following in particular:

ERROR: Caught exception [ERROR: Unsupported command [selectWindow | name=main | ]]

Can I just click on the window as I would any other button? My problem is that because this step is skipped, the automation test fails to click on the btnToDo element below it. I wonder if clicking the window is a prerequisite for clicking the button in this particular instance.

driver.findElement(By.id("btnLogin")).click();
// ERROR: Caught exception [ERROR: Unsupported command [selectWindow | name=main | ]]
driver.findElement(By.id("btnToDo")).click();

Stack Trace:

My error states that the button does not exist but it clearly does. After clicking "btnLogin", I am taken to a new page. Here, it seems the test is unable to locate the new "btnToDo".

Answer 1

It looks like clicking on btnLogin, new window is populating as per provided recording code. So here we need to switch to that new window to interact with elements in that new window. So that switch window recorded in Selenium IDE is not translated to WebDriver.

In webDriver there is concept getWindowHandles which provides to all web browsers opened by it. So first collect those handles and iterate to new one which is opened, then switch to that. Once work in that window is done, if required you need to switch back to first window to interact elements in first window.

for code please refer here
