I can't remember the specifics as to why, but the issue is probably with driver.manage().window().maximize();. I'd recommend something like removing that line, trying driver.manage().window().fullscreen();, or setting it up with the --start-maximized argument. Also, driver.get("url"); should be driver.get(url);. There are some other issues but that's as far as I can get you in the spare time I have. 

Generally, if you're new I'd recommend writing a line of code, running it, then writing more, then running it, until you have a good grasp of what's going on. Writing a heap of code and working backwards about why it's not working isn't the best idea.
