I know that if I want to know the corresponding IDs of the windows I currently have open, I use the following sentence on Python:
current_windows = driver.window_handles
print(current_windows)
Output (suppose there were 2 windows opened):
['CDwindow-807A80F3D56E82E4A61529E5898AC71C', 'CDwindow-7CEAB7D7E9B701F6279C4B5C4AEE1A29']
And I also know that if I want to get the title of the current page in the driver, I use the following sentence on Python:
current_window = driver.title
print(current_window)
Output:
Google
However, these windows IDs can't be understood by a mortal like me, so how could improve the sentence above to get the title of those windows?
I mean, to get an output like this that contains all the titles of the current windows open in the driver:
['Google', 'Facebook']
As per the WebDriver Specification of Window Handle:
Each browsing context has an associated window handle which uniquely identifies it. This must be a String and must not be "current".
The web window identifier is the string constant "window-fcc6-11e5-b4f8-330a88ab9d7f".
So the output of the following command:
current_windows = driver.window_handles
print(current_windows)
as:
['CDwindow-807A80F3D56E82E4A61529E5898AC71C', 'CDwindow-7CEAB7D7E9B701F6279C4B5C4AEE1A29']
is as per the specification and neither contains the page title information nor can be converted to any human readable format.
To retrieve the page title the only command is:
print(driver.title)
