Switching between browser tabs

[Vsevolod Sergienko]

Hi Andrei,

can you please tell me if there's a way to switch between browser tabs using nightwatch?

or if there isn't i'd appreciate a tip how to implement custom function to do so.
i've looked all docs and code references and wasn't able to find anything even distantly related

Thanks

           browser

.window_handles(function(result) {

                var newHandle = result.value[0];

                this.switchWindow(newHandle);

            })

yah, thanks a lot Jared!

but it's long implemented :)

Hi, the solution given here doesn't work. Maybe it used to, but it doesn't anymore. Any other solutions?

I'm just tasked right now with being able to switch tabs for tests which involve links opening in other tabs. Right now my test is simply opening the browser, opening a new tab, and attempting to switch tabs. When I run window_handles with two tabs fully loaded, I only get one handle. This is on Windows 10 Firefox 42

[David Linse]

thanks for the explanation..
i've successfully used `window_handles` on osx using both, java and chromedriver ..
is the code working for other browsers or did you tried an other ?

It's working on chrome. I had never tried it on chrome. Are there solutions for firefox? Testing all browser is, obviously, critical.

[Jaime Wissner]

Actually, I stand corrected. it is NOT working. Tabs are being assigned their own handles, but running this code does NOT switch the tab on my end.

Hi Team,

I am trying to switch between one tab to another in chrome using the same code but it is not working.

Can anyone please help me on this.

Always provide some code you are using and error debug.

  browser

.window_handles(function(result) {

                var newHandle = result.value[0];

                this.switchWindow(newHandle);

            })
