Selenium 2: Open link in new tab and close tabs

But its opening a window instead of a tab and i am not able to control the delay. I am using selenium 3. Using Selenium WebDriver with JAVA , I am trying to automate a functionality where I have to open a new tab do some operations there and come back to previous tab (Parent). Whats the best possible way to do it with firefox ??

Answer 1

You can use approximately the same approach. For opening new tab use shortcut:

Ctrl + T

For navigating to previous tab:

Ctrl + Shift + Tab

For closing current tab:

Ctrl + W

Code snipped for opening new tab can look like following:

public static void openNewTab() {
    String openNewTabCombination = Keys.chord(Keys.CONTROL, "t");
    driver.get().findElement(By.tagName("body")).sendKeys(openNewTabCombination);
}

Also for moving to another tab with RemoteWebDriver you can use:

public static void moveToAnotherTab(RemoteWebDriver driver) {
    for (String winHandle : driver.getWindowHandles()) {
        driver.switchTo().window(winHandle);
    }
}
