Tabs opening in selenium -Multiple tabs via (Keyschord)/Single tab using Context click and Robot class

 

I'll be showcasing you opening multiple tabs via selenium by 2 different method

1. the below code is used for opening multiple tabs in amazon using the Command(mac)/Control(win) + T method using Keychord, you can also use send keys using Action class but this approach does not always work , due to send keys issues with browser.  

2.you have another method using "Robot class" Which is explained later steps

Let's discuss first about opening multiple tans in same browser using Keys.chord Command(mac)+T method

Below is the screenshot for Amazon and we are targeting the below links to get open in different tabs

Here is the code for you

public class MultipleTabs {

WebDriver driver;

@Test

public void test2() {

System.setProperty("Webdriver.chrome.driver","chromedriver");

WebDriver driver= new ChromeDriver();

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(6, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

driver.get("https://www.amazon.in/");

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(6, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

//xpath of the frame
//Multitabs.findElements(By.tagName("a")).size()) give you all the links present under the frame
//"Make money with us" for that use findelement(s) instead of findelement 

WebElement Multitabs =  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@class='navFooterLinkCol navAccessibility'][3]"));

List <WebElement> links =  Multitabs.findElements(By.tagName("a"));

System.out.println(links.size());

//for iterating the loop for the links

for(int i=0;i< links.size();i++)

{

//To open links in new tab  

//Keys.command is used in MAC , for windows it would be Keys.control,Keys.Enter

String opentab = Keys.chord(Keys.COMMAND,Keys.ENTER);

// open all links one by one in new tab

    links.get(i).sendKeys(opentab);

}

}

}

You can check the result  here in eclipse

Amazon - opening multiple tabs

Opening a single tabs by doing right click using Contextclick

You can use the above code for opening single link

WebDriver driver;
@Test
public void test2() throws AWTException {
System.setProperty("Webdriver.chrome.driver","chromedriver");
WebDriver driver= new ChromeDriver();
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(6, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
 driver.get("https://www.google.com/");
 WebElement w = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@class='navFooterLinkCol navAccessibility'][3]"));
 w.sendKeys(Keys.chord(Keys.COMMAND,Keys.ENTER));

here we are going to perform mouseover over "Acccout and list" and select "Discover your style "

then right click on the "discover your style" and opening this on a new tab

public class SingleTabs {
WebDriver driver;
@Test
public void test2() throws AWTException {
System.setProperty("Webdriver.chrome.driver","chromedriver");
WebDriver driver= new ChromeDriver();
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(6, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
driver.get("https://www.amazon.co.in");
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(6, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
WebElement abc = driver.findElement(By.id("nav-link-accountList"));
Actions act = new Actions(driver);
act.moveToElement(abc).build().perform();
//getting total number of links in the  hover over window frame
WebElement ad =  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@id='nav-al-container']"));
List <WebElement> links =  ad.findElements(By.tagName("a"));
System.out.println(links.size());
//19 links present
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(3, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
WebElement ac = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Discover Your Style"));
act.moveToElement(ac).build().perform();
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
//To perform right click on the menu bar using context click and click the first option
act.contextClick(ac).sendKeys(Keys.ARROW_DOWN).sendKeys(Keys.ENTER).build().perform();
//To make sure above function worked well
System.out.println("Open link button Clicked");
}
}

Opening a single tabs by doing right click using robot class

                                              public class SingleTabs {

// Performing  Mouse hover

WebElement ac = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Baby Wish List"));
act.moveToElement(ac).build().perform();
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

Robot bot = new Robot();
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(1, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
//Right click 
bot.mousePress(InputEvent.BUTTON3_DOWN_MASK);
bot.mouseRelease(InputEvent.BUTTON3_DOWN_MASK);
System.out.println("Browse button Clicked");
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
//selecting first option of the right click which is back

WebDriver driver;

@Test

public void test2() throws AWTException {

System.setProperty("Webdriver.chrome.driver","chromedriver");

WebDriver driver= new ChromeDriver();

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(6, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

driver.get("https://www.amazon.co.in");

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(6, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

WebElement abc = driver.findElement(By.id("nav-link-accountList"));

Actions act = new Actions(driver);

act.moveToElement(abc).build().perform();

// create a robot class

bot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN);
bot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN);
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
bot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER);
bot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER);
System.out.println("Open link button Clicked");

//To make sure above function worked well

System.out.println("Open link button Clicked");

}
