URL does not open with WebDriver

Question

My code is

package mentor.qa.selenium;

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;

public class WDDemo1 {

    public static void main( String[] args){
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();         
        driver.get("http://www.google.com");
    }
}

I am using the latest java jar file 2.47.1 and Firefox 41.0.1. It starts Firefox but does not go to the link. How can I solve that?

Do you have any additional error messages, stacktraces or logs? — Sebastian, Oct 05 '15 at 06:35
In problems have 5 warnings. Build path specifies execution environment javaSE-1.7. There are no JREs installed in the workspace that are strictly compatible with this environment. — Ruhan Khan, Oct 05 '15 at 06:41

Code is working but optimize imports.

I run your code with minuscule edit. It opens google website. Reverify if you have imported both selenium-java and selenium-server-standalone jar files in the build path.

package com.jayant.selenium;

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

public class SampleSelenium {
    public static void main( String[] args){
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        driver.get("http://www.google.com");
    }
}

Your code is perfect. It might be configuration issue i.e. use lower version of firefox with same code. It will work

Did you try it in a lower version or is it just a guess? – Mattias Lindberg Oct 05 '15 at 08:09
i used the same code in Mozilla Firefox 38.0 , it was working fine – Deepak_Mahalingam Oct 05 '15 at 08:46
it's a eclipse issue as I mentioned in my answer – Shubham Jain Oct 06 '15 at 10:10
