Hi Dipen,

To handle or switch browser tabs in emulator/Simulator, the user needs to add below-mentioned code snippet to switch multiple tabs.

  driver.getAllWindowHandles().then(function(handles){
    for(let i=1;i<handles.length;i++){
        if(handles[i]){
        console.log("value of I:"+i);
        console.log("vALUE of length:"+handles.length)
        driver.switchTo().window(handles[i]);
        console.log('reached');

//To switch back to the primary tab, use the below code snippet:

       browser.switchTo().window(handles[0]);
        
       }
    }

   });

Hi Dipen, So switching the browser tabs in emulator/simulator can be performed by manually as well as automation. For Manual: User can simply open new tabs by clicking on the “+” icon. Please refer the attached screenshot.

For Automation: You can use the following robot class:

Robot r = new Robot();
r.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_CONTROL); r.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_T); r.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_CONTROL); r.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_T);

Hope this helps. Happy Testing.
