Browser (Groovy API Documentation for Geb 7.0)

geb.Browser

```
class Browser
extends Object
```
The browser is the centre of Geb. It encapsulates a WebDriver implementation and references a Page object that provides access to the content.
Browser objects dynamically delegate all method calls and property read/writes that it doesn't implement to the current page instance via propertyMissing ( ) and methodMissing ( ).

  - <T extends Page> T via(Map params, T page, Object[] args)
    
    Sends the browser to the given page instance url and sets the page the given instance.
    Returns:
    a page instance that was passed after initializing it.

  - <T extends Page> T via(Map params, T page, UrlFragment fragment, Object[] args)
    
    Sends the browser to the given page instance url and sets the page the given instance.
    Returns:
    a page instance that was passed after initializing it.

    Page.to
  - <T> T withNewWindow(Map options, Closure windowOpeningBlock, @DelegatesTo(value: Browser, strategy: DELEGATE_FIRST)
    Closure<T> block)
    
    Expects the first closure argument to open a new window and calls the second closure argument in the context of the newly opened window. A map of options can also be specified that allows to close the new window, switch to a different page for closure executed in the context of the new window and also to wait for the window opening if the window opening is asynchronous.
    throws:
    geb.error.NoNewWindowException if the window opening closure doesn't open one or opens more than one new window
    
    Parameters:
    options - a map that can be used to pass additional options
    windowOpeningBlock - a closure that should open a new window
    block - closure to be executed in the new window context
    Returns:
    The return value of block
  - <T> T withNewWindow(Closure windowOpeningBlock, @DelegatesTo(value: Browser, strategy: DELEGATE_FIRST)
    Closure<T> block)
    
    Expects the first closure argument to open a new window and calls the second closure argument in the context of the newly opened window.
    throws:
    geb.error.NoNewWindowException if the window opening closure doesn't open one or opens more than one new window
    
    Parameters:
    windowOpeningBlock - a closure that should open a new window
    block - closure to be executed in the new window context
    Returns:
    The return value of block
  - <T> T withWindow(String window, @DelegatesTo(value: Browser, strategy: DELEGATE_FIRST)
    Closure<T> block)
    
    Executes a closure within the context of a window specified by a name
    Parameters:
    window - name of the window to use as context
    block - closure to be executed in the window context
    Returns:
    The return value of block
  - <T> List<T> withWindow(Closure specification, @DelegatesTo(value: Browser, strategy: DELEGATE_FIRST)
    Closure<T> block)
    
    Executes a closure within the context of all windows for which the specification closure returns groovy truth.
    Parameters:
    specification - closure executed once in context of each window, if it returns groovy truth for a given window then also the block closure is executed in the context of that window
    block - closure to be executed in the window context
    Returns:
    List containing values returned from block for each window for which specification returns groovy truth
  - <T> List<T> withWindow(Map options, Closure specification, @DelegatesTo(value: Browser, strategy: DELEGATE_FIRST)
    Closure<T> block)
    
    Executes a closure within the context of all windows for which the specification closure returns groovy truth.
    Parameters:
    options - a map that can be used to pass additional options
    specification - closure executed once in context of each window, if it returns groovy truth for a given window then also the block closure is executed in the context of that window
    block - closure to be executed in the window context
    Returns:
    List containing values returned from block for each window for which specification returns groovy truth
  - <T> T withWindow(Map options, String window, @DelegatesTo(value: Browser, strategy: DELEGATE_FIRST)
    Closure<T> block)
    
    Executes a closure within the context of a window specified by a name
    Parameters:
    options - a map that can be used to pass additional options
    window - name of the window to use as context
    block - closure to be executed in the window context
    Returns:
    The return value of block
