Watir - Browser Windows

Quiz

You will come across cases where we have to use popup window or opening of a new browser window. In this chapter, we will discuss how to test such cases using Watir.

Syntax

browser.window

A working example that we are going to test is given here −

<html>
   <head>
      <title>Testing UI using Watir</title>
   </head>
   
   <body>
      <script type = "text/javascript">
         function wsclick() {
            var myWindow = window.open(
               "https://www.google.com/", "mywindow", "width = 1000,height = 500");
         }
      </script>
      
      <form name = "myform" method = "POST">
         <div>
            <br>
            <input type = "button" id = "btnsubmit" name = "btnsubmit" value = "submit" onclick = "wsclick()"/>
            <br>
         </div>
      </form>
      <br/>
   </body>
</html>

Output

On-click of button Open Window, the popup window opens up. Here, the url we have given is www.google.com. Now let us test the same using Watir/

Example

require 'watir'
b = Watir::Browser.new :chrome
b.goto('http://localhost/uitesting/windowpopup.html')
b.button(id: 'btnsubmit').click
b.window(title: 'Google').use do
   b.screenshot.save 'popupwindow.png'
   t = b.text_field(class: 'gLFyf')
   t.set 'Watir'
   b.screenshot.save 'popupwindowbefore.png'
   b.button(name: 'btnK').click
   b.screenshot.save 'popupwindowafter.png'
end
