            driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(20, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

            driver.get("http://ec2-52-74-219-106.ap-southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com/sso/login/?siteid=MTASITE&request_url=http%3A%2F%2Fec2-52-76-192-207.ap-southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com%2F");

        System.out.println("hi");
        }   
        @DataProvider

        {   
            ArrayList<Object[]> testData = TestUtil.getDataFromExcel();
            return testData.iterator();
                }

        @Test(dataProvider="getTestdata")

        public void loginmodule(String emailid, String password)
        {
        //  driver.close();
        //  driver =  new ChromeDriver();
            //driver.manage().window().maximize();

            /*

            } catch (Exception e) {

            }
            */
            WebElement username = driver.findElement(By.id("LoginForm_username"));
            username.sendKeys(emailid);
            username.click();

            WebElement passwordl = driver.findElement(By.id("LoginForm_password"));
            passwordl.sendKeys(password);
            passwordl.click();
            WebElement submitlink = driver.findElement(By.id("login_page_login_btn"));  
            submitlink.submit();
            }
    }

I am getting following error:

You have a typo in your setProperty line.

It should be webdriver not Webdriver

System.setProperty("webDriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Users\\Priyanka\\selenium-java-3.0.0-beta2\\chromedriver.exe");
