How to close the new browser pop up window in Selenium WebDriver??

[sirus tula]

Hello Selenium Experts,

 

I am having trouble closing the new browser pop up which appears after clicking the button. I am able to open a new window and switch to the main window but not able to close the main window.

 

When i say driver.close() after swithcing to new window, it closes the main window and fails the test.

 

Can anyone experience this problem?

 

If yes, can you please help me find the solution.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

 

Below is the webdriver code that I have.

 

 

     public void Test1()

        {

            Methods Common = new Methods(driver); //calls the common class

           

            string originalHandle= driver.CurrentWindowHandle;   //gets the current window handle

            driver.FindElement(By.LinkText("Developer")).Click();

 

            if (Common.IsElementPresent(By.CssSelector("a[class='app12']")))

            {

                Common.waitforElement(By.CssSelector("a[class='app12']"));

                driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("a[class='app12']")).Click();

            }

 

            else if (Common.IsElementPresent(By.CssSelector("div[class='bicon']")))

            {

                driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("div[class='bicon']")).Click();  //opens a new browser window after clicking the button

            }

            

            driver.Manage().Timeouts().ImplicitlyWait(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(500));

            driver.Close();  //closes the main window instead of popup and fails.

            driver.SwitchTo().Window(originalHandle);

            Common.waitforElement(By.CssSelector("button[class='success']"));

           

        }

 

 

Thanks,

Yes, this is because you are closing the driver before switching to the new window, see your code,

Thank you for your prompt response, Niraj.

 

After the new pop up window is displayed, I also use the following code but the driver is still picking up the main window instead of new window.

string newWindow = seeker.CurrentWindowHandle;

driver.SwitchTo().Window(newWindow);  // it still selects the main window

driver.Close();

drivr.Manage().Timeouts().ImplicitlyWait(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(500));

driver.SwitchTo().Window(originalHandle);

Thanks

Correction, seeker=driver.

 

Thanks :)

[Neeraj Sharma]

read this thread and might be you are able to find your solution, i have already posted a working demo code there for dealing with multiple windows.

Thanks Niraj, NOT sure how it would help on this issue though.

 

Seems like this is webdriver defect although I found out the work around solution.

 

String newWindow= driver.CurrentWindowHandle; //still refers to the main window not sure why.

 

However, here's the work around solution that i found.

 

driver.SwitchTo().Window(driver.WindowHandles.ToList().Last()); // switches to the new window

driver.close(); // Now closes the new window

 

 

Thanks,

your problem is same as first of all you are not able to switch to the new window. and if this problem is solved then you can proceed further so first try to solve this problem. Can you please give me any URL related to your application so that i can show you the same code for that to deal with the windows.

WebDriver does not automatically switch to new windows when opened. You have to do that yourself, so it's not surprising (nor is it a bug) that the .CurrentWindowHandle property would still refer to the main window, even though you've clicked on the link to open a new window. Notice also that the list of window handles returned by the .WindowHandles property is not guaranteed to be in any order. That means you cannot rely on the last handle in the list being the last window opened.

In the .NET support classes (WebDriver.Support.dll) there is a PopupWindowFinder class that provides an example of how to properly implement this behavior. You're welcome to use the class as-is, but it's intended to be an example, so if it doesn't meet your needs 100%, you'll need to implement your own version.

Thank u Jim again. Not sure how many times we have exchanged emails :).

It's very hard to find help on webdriver c# problems since many people use java and there are only handful of webdriver c# experts like u :).

Thanks again :).

Put something like the following in an AfterMethod ? That way it will run even if the test fails:

if(driver != null) {

    driver.quit();

[Vikas Gahlaut]

driver.close() will close current window and driver.quit will close all window
