Handle windows with Selenium:

 There are test cases in which we need to switch between multiple windows, to automate these test cases using selenium we need to use below functions:

1.getWindowHandle(): This function return parent window reference.

2.getWindowHandles() : This function return all windows reference.

3.switchTo().window(Window) : This function used to switch between windows.

Example:

String Parent_Window = driver.getWindowHandle();

for (String Child_Window : driver.getWindowHandles())

{

driver.switchTo().window(Child_Window);

driver.findElement(By.id("appointment")).click();

driver.findElement(By.id("closeAppointment")).click();

driver.close();

}

driver.switchTo().window(Parent_Window);

Handling Frames in Selenium:

Selenium has multiple methods to handle Frames.

1. driver.switchTo().frame(name) 
2. driver.switchTo().frame(id) 
3. driver.switchTo().frame(index) 
4. driver.switchTo().frame(iframe_element) 

Example:

<iframe name=”content” id=”contentSection”></iframe>

Multiple options:

driver.switchTo.frame(“content”);

driver.switchTo.frame(“contentSection”);

driver.switchTo.frame(0);

driver.switchTo.frame(driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("iframe[id='contentSection']")

)

To get out of Frame:

driver.SwitchTo().DefaultContent()

Switch to Parent Frame:

driver.switchTo().parentFrame();
