[🐛 Bug]: Unable to switch back to default window

What happened?

I upgraded to selenium 4.1.0 binding. When executing a test case which has steps: To Switch to iframe Enter some value Switch back to defaultWindow Click a button

Passes on local machine but when executing on selenium grid 4.1.0, it fails with error “Error communicating with the remote browser. It may have died.”

Test case fails at “Switch back to defaultWindow” step.

How can we reproduce the issue?

Go to site with Iframe
Switch to iframe 
Enter some value (e.g. work in iframe)
Switch back to defaultWindow (This is the step test case fails)
Click a button

Relevant log output

This is a duplicate of #10116, we have already a fix that will be released in either on 15.12 or 16.12.

[MihirModiAC]

The defect is in Selenium Grid 4.1.0 not local execution.

I mentioned that local execution works but Selenium Grid has problem.

Also I am using the “switchToDefault” command not “switchToParent”.

Thank you

It works as expected
