This section contains the APIs related to browsing context commands.
Open a new window
Creates a new browsing context in a new window.
BrowsingContext browsingContext = new BrowsingContext(driver, WindowType.WINDOW);
Open a new tab
Creates a new browsing context in a new tab.
Use existing window handle
Creates a browsing context for the existing tab/window to run commands.
String id = driver.getWindowHandle();
BrowsingContext browsingContext = new BrowsingContext(driver, id);
Open a window with a reference browsing context
A reference browsing context is a top-level browsing context. The API allows to pass the reference browsing context, which is used to create a new window. The implementation is operating system specific.
BrowsingContext
browsingContext =
new BrowsingContext(driver, WindowType.WINDOW, driver.getWindowHandle());
Open a tab with a reference browsing context
A reference browsing context is a top-level browsing context. The API allows to pass the reference browsing context, which is used to create a new tab. The implementation is operating system specific.
BrowsingContext
browsingContext =
new BrowsingContext(driver, WindowType.TAB, driver.getWindowHandle());
Navigate to a URL
BrowsingContext browsingContext = new BrowsingContext(driver, WindowType.TAB);
NavigationResult info = browsingContext.navigate("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/bidi/logEntryAdded.html");
Assertions.assertNotNull(browsingContext.getId());
Assertions.assertNull(info.getNavigationId());
Assertions.assertTrue(info.getUrl().contains("/bidi/logEntryAdded.html"));
Navigate to a URL with readiness state
BrowsingContext browsingContext = new BrowsingContext(driver, WindowType.TAB);
NavigationResult info = browsingContext.navigate("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/bidi/logEntryAdded.html",
ReadinessState.COMPLETE);
Assertions.assertNotNull(browsingContext.getId());
Assertions.assertNull(info.getNavigationId());
Assertions.assertTrue(info.getUrl().contains("/bidi/logEntryAdded.html"));
Get browsing context tree
Provides a tree of all browsing contexts descending from the parent browsing context, including the parent browsing context.
String referenceContextId = driver.getWindowHandle();
BrowsingContext parentWindow = new BrowsingContext(driver, referenceContextId);
parentWindow.navigate("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/iframes.html", ReadinessState.COMPLETE);
List<BrowsingContextInfo> contextInfoList = parentWindow.getTree();
Assertions.assertEquals(1, contextInfoList.size());
BrowsingContextInfo info = contextInfoList.get(0);
Assertions.assertEquals(1, info.getChildren().size());
Assertions.assertEquals(referenceContextId, info.getId());
Assertions.assertTrue(info.getChildren().get(0).getUrl().contains("formPage.html"));
Get browsing context tree with depth
Provides a tree of all browsing contexts descending from the parent browsing context, including the parent browsing context upto the depth value passed.
String referenceContextId = driver.getWindowHandle();
BrowsingContext parentWindow = new BrowsingContext(driver, referenceContextId);
parentWindow.navigate("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/iframes.html", ReadinessState.COMPLETE);
List<BrowsingContextInfo> contextInfoList = parentWindow.getTree(0);
Assertions.assertEquals(1, contextInfoList.size());
BrowsingContextInfo info = contextInfoList.get(0);
Assertions.assertNull(info.getChildren()); // since depth is 0
Assertions.assertEquals(referenceContextId, info.getId());
Get All Top level browsing contexts
BrowsingContext window1 = new BrowsingContext(driver, driver.getWindowHandle());
BrowsingContext window2 = new BrowsingContext(driver, WindowType.WINDOW);
List<BrowsingContextInfo> contextInfoList = window1.getTopLevelContexts();
Assertions.assertEquals(2, contextInfoList.size());
Close a tab/window
BrowsingContext window1 = new BrowsingContext(driver, WindowType.WINDOW);
BrowsingContext window2 = new BrowsingContext(driver, WindowType.WINDOW);
window2.close();
Assertions.assertThrows(BiDiException.class, window2::getTree);
