Why driver.get() method is not recognized?

Question

I have setup selenium in Intellij Idea. But when tried to create a simple instance it doesn't recognize "get" method.
This is what I have done up to now.

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\chromedriver_win32");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();   
driver.get("http://www.google.com");  // get is in red and doesn't allow to import any package
Thread.sleep(5000); // Sleep also has same problem       

How can I fix this?
I have added jar files. I'm using java webdriver

I have added jars inside the zip of selenium downloaded file
I did imports as they were suggested. I deleted the project. So, I don't have the code and imports now.
Even the thread cant identify its methods. For and example Thread. doesn't suggest methods available.
declaring the driver didn't cause any trouble. But driver.doesn't suggest any method including 'get'

Answer 1

I found the answer for the problem. All I had to do is include the code inside a main method as follows.

public static void main(String[] args) {
    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
    driver.get("URL");
}

Answer 2

Please add all the dependent jars to your project. You are getting the RED color in the method calls because the corresponding classes are not present in the project and JDK is not able to resolve the path.

Go to Module settings --> add the selenium jar --> apply

Answer 3

You need to use URL (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL) which means full https (or http) address to make it work. Try:

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; public class SeleniumDemo { WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("http://www.google.com"); Thread.sleep(5000); }

Answer 4

Import the Remote Webdriver and run the code. This will work.

RemoteWebDriver driver;

or else try this below code

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "give the chrome driver path here");
ChromeDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
//To maximize the window
driver.manage().window().maximize();
//Need to load the url
driver.get("google.com");         

Answer 5

My suggestion is to check your driver path is correct or not.
