t.switchToPreviousWindow Method

Activates the previously active window. Can be chained with other TestController methods.

t.switchToPreviousWindow()  → this | Promise<any>

If no new windows are open or closed, consecutive method calls cycle between the two most recent windows.

Example #

import { Selector, ClientFunction } from 'testcafe';

fixture `Example page`
    .page('http://www.example.com/');

test('Switch to the previous window', async t => {
    await t
        .openWindow('https://devexpress.com')
        .switchToPreviousWindow();

    const url = await t.eval(() => document.documentURI);
    await t.expect(url).eql('http://example.com/');
});
