I am facing issue in executing our Selenium test on safari browser on Mac machine

Question

We are facing issue in switching to the new window on safari browser. Below is our code used for switching the window.

public void switchToWindow() {
        Set<String> availableWindows = driver.getWindowHandles();
        for (String strWinHandle : availableWindows) {
            driver.switchTo().window(strWinHandle);
        }
    }

In availableWindows, it returns all window handles but instead of switching to new window, it is switching to parent window. Above code works fine on all other browsers.

Selenium version - 3.11.0 Safari version - 11.1.1

you can use CurrentHandle http://toolsqa.com/selenium-webdriver/switch-commands/ — Prany, Jun 08 '18 at 05:55
you can use getWindowHandle method of driver to get current window handle. — Murthi, Jun 08 '18 at 06:04
getWindowHandle will return window handle of parent window. we are facing issue in switch to new window — Shahenshaha Mulani, Jun 08 '18 at 06:08

You can try the following code.

public void switchToWindow() {
       String curWinHandle = driver.getWindowHandle();
        Set<String> availableWindows = driver.getWindowHandles();
        for (String strWinHandle : availableWindows) {
            if(!curWinHandle.equals(strWinHandle))
               driver.switchTo().window(strWinHandle);
        }
    }

we tried with above code also, It will work fine while switching to new window but if fails when we have to close the last opened window.It will close parent window then. – Shahenshaha Mulani Jun 08 '18 at 06:18
how do you close the last opened window only? – Murthi Jun 08 '18 at 06:27
switching to last window using above method and then driver.close() – Shahenshaha Mulani Jun 08 '18 at 06:30
driver.close() closes all windows. there is no option to close only one window. may be you can try shortcut keys to close the current window. But I am not sure about it. – Murthi Jun 08 '18 at 06:32
