[FIXED] How to open a new tab in the same browser by using Selenium WebDriver with Java?

Issue

I can open a new window with Selenium WebDriver by using Java and JavaScript. I am using Firefox. The code is as follows:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
jse.executeScript("function createDoc(){var w = window.open(); w.document.open(); w.document.write('<h1>Hello World!</h1>'); w.document.close();}; createDoc();");

How can I open a new tab in the same browser by using WebDriver (Selenium 2)?

Solution

Wasim,

cdriver.findElement(By.cssSelector("body")).sendKeys(Keys.CONTROL +"t");

You can use above line to open new tab in a same browser (Works in Firefox)
