Answer 1

This might probably be coz while creating your own class you might have also accepted to create a default class as prescribed by your IDE. If that's the case try this: go to PROJECT folder -> src folder -> Default package keep only one class(in which you had written code) and delete another one. For more details about test automation strategies and methodology, You can get a better understanding with the QA Automation course.

Try removing the selenium dependencies from the ModulePath to ClassPath under the Build path in eclipse.

That should work!

try this, just edit paths and package name.

package navi;

import org.junit.After;
import org.junit.AfterClass;
import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.BeforeClass;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeOptions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;

public class Avi {
    public static WebDriver driver;
    WebDriverWait wait5s = new WebDriverWait(driver,5); 

    @BeforeClass
    public static void setUpClass() {
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Users\\pburgr\\Desktop\\chromedriver\\chromedriver.exe");
        ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
        options.addArguments("user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\pburgr\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data");
        driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
        driver.manage().window().maximize();}   
    @Before
    public void setUp() {}
    @After
    public void tearDown() {}
    @AfterClass
    public static void tearDownClass() {driver.close();driver.quit();}
    @Test
    public void avi() throws InterruptedException {
        driver.get("http://www.gcrit.com/build3/admin/");
        wait5s.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.name("username"))).sendKeys("admin");
        driver.findElement(By.name("password")).sendKeys("admin@123");
        driver.findElement(By.id("tdb1")).click();

        // wait to resolve the click before checking url
        Thread.sleep(1000);

        String url = driver.getCurrentUrl();

        if (url.equals("http://www.gcrit.com/build3/admin/index.php")){
        System.out.println("Successful"); 
        }
        else {
        System.out.println("Unsuccessful");
        }
    }
}

For further understanding, you can refer to the Selenium Certification.

Error occurred during initialization of boot layer java.lang.module.FindException: Module javafx.base not found #91. Closed. leelakarthik  I created a library linked to the javafx sdk and added the line --module-path=${PATH_TO_FX} --add-modules=javafx.controls,javafx.fxml to the VM options line. PATH_TO_FX is defined as an environment variable pointing to my javaFX folder.
