How to switch control to pop-up window(WebDriver)----> Handling Pop Ups

How to switch control to pop-up window ?

If you want to do any operations in pop-up window you need to switch the control to pop-up window then do all your operations in that and finally close the pop-up window and again select the default (main ) window.

here is WebDriver logic to select Pop-up window

1 . Pop-up window has name/id

     driver.switchTo().window("<window name>");

2. Pop-up window doesn't have name / you don't want to hard code the window name then go for below logic.

• before opening pop-up get the main window handle.

             String mainWindowHandle=driver.getWindowHandle();

• open the pop-up (click on element which causes open a new window)

             webElement.click();

• try to get all available open window handles with below command. (the below command returns all window handles as Set)

            Set s = driver.getWindowHandles();

• from that above set try get newly opened window and switch the control to that (pop-up window handle), as we already know the mainWindowHandle.

                        Set s = driver.getWindowHandles();

Iterator ite = s.iterator();

while(ite.hasNext())

                       {

String popupHandle=ite.next().toString();

if(!popupHandle.contains(mainWindowHandle))

{

driver.switchTo().window(popupHandle);

}

}
