The following is the difference between driver.close() and driver.quit() commands in Selenium WebDriver:

> driver.close() command will only close the browser window which is in focus, out of all the windows opened
- > If the current focus is on the main/defect window, driver.close() will close the main/default window
- > If you have switched to a popup window or new tab window from the main/default window, driver.close() will close the current focused child window
> driver.quit() command will close all the browser windows which are opened irrespective of their count (including the default and child windows)
