Selenium Java - Handling Windows, Frames, and Alerts

After clicking a link that opens a new window, which code snippet correctly switches to the new window using getWindowHandles()?

String original = driver.getWindowHandle();
Set<String> allHandles = driver.getWindowHandles();
for (String handle : allHandles) {
  if (!handle.equals(original)) {
    driver.switchTo().window(handle);
    break;
  }
}

Bdriver.switchTo().window(driver.getWindowHandles().iterator().next());

Cdriver.switchTo().window(driver.getWindowHandle());

Ddriver.switchTo().window(null);

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Store original window handle
Save the current window handle before clicking the link.
Step 2: Get all window handles
Retrieve all open window handles after the new window opens.
Step 3: Loop through handles and switch
Switch to the handle that is not the original window.
Final Answer:
String original = driver.getWindowHandle(); Set allHandles = driver.getWindowHandles(); for (String handle : allHandles) { if (!handle.equals(original)) { driver.switchTo().window(handle); break; } } correctly implements this logic.
Quick Check:

MISTAKES

Switching to first handle without checking
