Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems: WebDriver cannot be r

[Bj Ahn]

I am new to Selenium and was following one the on-line tutorial to run the following script from Eclipse:

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Gmail_Login {
    /**
     * @param args
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
       
        // objects and variables instantiation
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        // FirefoxDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        String appUrl = "https://accounts.google.com";
       
        // launch the firefox browser and open the application url
        driver.get(appUrl);
       
        // maximize the browser window
        driver.manage().window().maximize();
       
        // declare and initialize the variable to store the expected title of the webpage.
        String expectedTitle = " Sign in - Google Accounts ";
       
        // fetch the title of the web page and save it into a string variable
        String actualTitle = driver.getTitle();
       
        // compare the expected title of the page with the actual title of the page and print the result
        if (expectedTitle.equals(actualTitle))
        {
            System.out.println("Verification Successful - The correct title is displayed on the web page.");
        }
        else
        {
            System.out.println("Verification Failed - An incorrect title is displayed on the web page.");
        }
       
        // enter a valid username in the email textbox
        WebElement username = driver.findElement(By.id("Email"));
        username.clear();
        username.sendKeys("TestSelenium");
       
        // enter a valid password in the password textbox
        WebElement password = driver.findElement(By.id("Passwd"));
        password.clear();
        password.sendKeys("password123");
       
        // click on the Sign in button
        WebElement SignInButton = driver.findElement(By.id("signIn"));
        SignInButton.click();
       
        // close the web browser
        driver.close();
        System.out.println("Test script executed successfully.");
       
        // terminate the program
        System.exit(0);
    }
}


However I am getting the following error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems:
    WebDriver cannot be resolved to a type
    WebElement cannot be resolved to a type
    By cannot be resolved
    WebElement cannot be resolved to a type
    By cannot be resolved
    WebElement cannot be resolved to a type
    By cannot be resolved

    at Gmail_Login.main(Gmail_Login.java:13)


Can anyone help me with what I am missing here?

Thanks

You havent told us what tutorial you were following.

But looks like you are having a problem with your CLASSPATH missing jars. So you should grab the required selenium jars and add them up to your CLASSPATH.

Thanks & Regards

If you have java installed and using the latest selenium jars,

can you just try,

WebDriver driver=new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("http://www.google.com")

and check whether google site is opening or not?

The tutorial page is http://www.softwaretestinghelp.com/selenium-webdriver-tutorial-10/

I am running it using eclipse..... 

Do I need to set up CLASSPATH as environment variable explicitly?

Thanks for your help.

Fixed the issue.... apparently I need to include jar files from the main directory too along with the ones from lib sub-directory.

Exactly!

I've run your code and it ran well. I've think the path of libraries is not right. For fix this issue, i think you check again the path of selenium libraries.
