title: Launching Chrome and passing the url with selenium
body: <p>I am using selenium for the first time:
  below is my basic Code to launch the chrome and pass the google url:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class first {
      public static void main(String args[]){
          System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C://Program Files (x86)//Google//Chrome//Application//chrome.exe");
          WebDriver dr1= new ChromeDriver(); ;
          String baseurl = "http://www.google.com/";
          dr1.get(baseurl);
  
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>After executing it is launching the browser but not sending the url to it.
  below is the error i got in console output:</p>
