Issues in Switching Tabs in Materialize 1.0.0

I want to select a tab on clicking a link. I tried using different online available solutions
(including $('ul.tabs').tabs('select_tab', 'tab_id');)
but none seems to be work with current materialize version.

The official documentation for materialize states to do the initialization using
var instance = M.Tabs.init(el, options); instance.select('tab_id');
but none of the methods seem to work correctly with current version or has been clearly specified w.r.t Materialize Tabs.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Below is the code snippet along with jsfiddle link,

/* var instance = new M.Tabs.init(el, options);


function check_active(){

    var instance = M.Tabs.getInstance(elem);

    instance.select('test2');

Solution

You should change

$('ul.tabs').tabs('select_tab', 'test2');

to :

$('ul.tabs').tabs('select', 'test2');

select shows tab content that corresponds to the tab with the id. JSFiddle
