 1 | ## How to handle multiple tabs in automation test in Python-selenium on [LambdaTest](https://www.lambdatest.com/?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repo&utm_campaign=Python-selenium-multiple-tabs)
 2 | 
 3 | If you want to handle multiple tabs using an automation test in Python-selenium on LambdaTest, you can use the follwing steps. You can refer to sample test repo [here](https://github.com/LambdaTest/python-selenium-sample).
 4 | 
 5 | ### Code
 6 | 
 7 | To open a new tab, you can use the following line of code:
 8 | 
 9 | ```python
10 | driver.execute_script("window.open('about:blank','secondtab');")
11 | ```
12 | 
13 | To switch to the new tab, you can use the following line of code:
14 | 
15 | ```python
16 | #by using tab name
17 | driver.switch_to.window("secondtab")
18 | ```
19 | or
20 | ```python
21 | #by using tab id
22 | driver.switch_to.window("2")
23 | ```
24 | 
25 | ## Run your test
26 | 
27 | ```bash
28 | python lambdatest.py
29 | ```
