How can I close an IE Tab during testing

[Stevan]

When recording a keyword test, I click and option and it opens a PDF file to view, so once I viewed I closed out the new tab to get to my original tab. Test complete is failing on this step. How can I get it to close an IE tab?

def test11():
  Aliases.browser.Page("*", 0).Close()

assuming that the focused control is on the browser tab that we want to close, the above code should work

Do I convert my key test into a script and just copy and paste the code you provided?

[hkim5]

or you can save the script routine and drag and drop it into your keyword test workspace where you need to perform that action

The following code will take a browser that is open to Google.com and open a new tab, then nagivate to eyeontesting.com on the new tab, then will close just the google.com tab. Modify for your needs...

'Browser is open to Google.com

Browser(''Google'').Page(''Google'').WebEdit(''q'').Set ''eyeontesting''

Browser(''Google'').Page(''orasi - Google Search'').WebButton(''btnG'').Click

Browser(''Google'').OpenNewTab

Browser(''Browser'').Page(''Page'').Sync

Browser(''Browser'').Navigate ''eyeontesting.com''

CloseBrowserByTitle ''Google'', true

Sub CloseBrowserByTitle(title, isregex)

Set desc = Description.Create()

desc(''title'').Value = title

desc(''title'').RegularExpression = isregex

desc(''index'').Value = ''0''

While Browser(desc).Exist(5)

Browser(desc).Close

Wend

End Sub
