The following can be used as an example of how to work with two chrome browser tabs where one tab is using incognito and the other tab is using a regular chrome tab. This solution was originally posted here: Incognito Window Chrome - #9 by josh.meeks A few edits were made to the post to make it work as expected. Copy and paste the following into a new test case and run it…

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver as WebDriver 
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeOptions
import org.openqa.selenium.Dimension
import org.openqa.selenium.Point
import com.kms.katalon.core.webui.driver.DriverFactory
import com.kms.katalon.core.webui.keyword.WebUiBuiltInKeywords as WebUI

//Open the first window (regular Chrome)
WebUI.openBrowser('https://www.google.com')
WebDriver regularChromeDriver = DriverFactory.getWebDriver()
// Adjust width and height as needed
Dimension regularChromeWindowSize = new Dimension(970, 1100)
// Adjust x and y coordinates as needed
Point regularChromeWindowPosition = new Point(0, 0)
regularChromeDriver.manage().window().setSize(regularChromeWindowSize)
regularChromeDriver.manage().window().setPosition(regularChromeWindowPosition)
//Store the original window handle
String originalWindowHandle = regularChromeDriver.getWindowHandle()

//Open the second window (Incognito mode)
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions()
options.addArguments('--incognito')
WebDriver incognitoDriver = new ChromeDriver(options)
incognitoDriver.get('https://www.google.com')
// Adjust width and height as needed
Dimension incognitoWindowSize = new Dimension(970, 1100)
// Adjust x and y coordinates as needed
Point incognitoWindowPosition = new Point(955, 0)
incognitoDriver.manage().window().setSize(incognitoWindowSize)
incognitoDriver.manage().window().setPosition(incognitoWindowPosition)

//Switch to the Incognito window
DriverFactory.changeWebDriver(incognitoDriver)
//Perform actions in the Incognito window (e.g., enter data)
WebUI.delay(5)

//Switch back to the regular Chrome window
DriverFactory.changeWebDriver(regularChromeDriver)
//Perform actions in the regular Chrome window and observe data update
WebUI.delay(5)

//Close the windows
regularChromeDriver.quit()
incognitoDriver.quit()
