Incorrect URL displayed upon using driver.getCurrentUrl() in Webdriver, Selenium

I have a register form, which is filled by Selenium Webdriver, it submits and goes to the post registration page. Upon checking the URL with driver.getCurrentUrl() the previous page url is returned.

driver.get(baseUrl + "home") // url /home
driver.findElement(By.id(<<button>>).click();   // url -> /register

driver.findElement(By.id(<<textfield>>).sendKeys("the entire form is filled"); // url /register

driver.findElement(By.id(<<submit button>>).click(); // url -> /postRegister

System.out.println(driver.getCurrentUrl()); //

result: url /register

Expected: url /postRegister

Did you put some wait after click, and tried getCurrentURL()? driver.findElement(By.id(<>).click(); // url -> /postRegister. Thread.Sleep(10000); //put some suitable wait or atleast it tries to navigate to post register page. System.out.println(driver.getCurrentUrl());

This shouldn't be happening but anyhow you can use JavascriptExecutor to fetch the current url as:

JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
js.executeScript("return window.location.href").toString();
