Selenium Java - Handling Windows, Frames, and Alerts

Consider this code snippet:

driver.get("https://example.com");
String mainWindow = driver.getWindowHandle();
WebDriver newTab = driver.switchTo().newWindow(WindowType.TAB);
newTab.get("https://selenium.dev");
System.out.println(driver.getCurrentUrl());

What URL will be printed?

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand driver focus after new tab
After newWindow(WindowType.TAB), driver focus switches to the new tab.
Step 2: Check URL after navigation
The new tab navigates to https://selenium.dev, so driver.getCurrentUrl() returns this URL.
Final Answer:
https://selenium.dev -> Option B
Quick Check:
Current URL = new tab URL [OK]

Quick Trick: Driver focus moves to new tab automatically [OK]
