Question

I m facing the below issue searched in Google couldn't find the clear answer how to resolve this.

Error :

org.apache.bcel.verifier.exc.AssertionViolatedException.main(AssertionViolatedException.java:102)

Code

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

public class Newtours 
{ 
     public static ChromeDriver driver; 
     public void chrome() 
    {
         System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\imper\\Downloads\\chro‌​medriver_win32\\chro‌​medriver.exe"); // objects and variables instantiation 
         driver = new ChromeDriver(); 
         driver.get("newtours.demoaut.com/");
    }
}

Answer 1

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "chromedriver");
driver = new ChromeDriver(); 
driver.get("http://newtours.demoaut.com/");

Try this code it's working fine. I checked this and it's running fine. You need to give http or https for your url.

Answer 2

The error is stemming out of org.apache.bcel.verifier

You have to take care of a certain things as follows :

Instead of using the ChromeDriver implementation use the WebDriver interface. chrome is a reserved keyword. Use some other user defined name for the method e.g. my_function() {} Simply defining public void chrome() won't execute your Test. You have to convert public void chrome() in to either of the following :

• Convert into main() function as follows:

      public class Newtours  
      {
          public static void main(String[] args) 
          {
              System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\path\\to\\chromedriver.exe");
              WebDriver driver =  new ChromeDriver();
              driver.get("http://newtours.demoaut.com/");
          }
      }
  

• Integrate TestNG and add @Test annotations as follows :

      import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
      import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
      import org.testng.annotations.Test;
  
      public class Newtours 
      {
          @Test
          public void my_function()
          {
              System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\path\\to\\chromedriver.exe");
              WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
              driver.get("http://newtours.demoaut.com/");
          }
      }
