junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: null in JUnit test using eclipse

I'm new to JUnit and am trying to get some tests running. I have the following codes. After running the codes the test failed and shows AssertionFailedError: null

  package com.seleniumsimplified.webdriver;
  import org.junit.Test;
  import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
  import org.openqa.selenium.htmlunit.HtmlUnitDriver;
  import static junit.framework.Assert.assertTrue;

  public class FirstTest {

  @Test
  public void driverIsTheKing(){

      WebDriver driver = new HtmlUnitDriver(); 
      driver.get("http://www.compendiumdev.co.uk/selenium");

      assertTrue(driver.getTitle().startsWith("Selenium simplified") );
  }

}

This test always fails in the last line and the stacktrace is the following

assertTrue(driver.getTitle().startsWith("Selenium simplified") );

It seems the title is something else.

Try to output the actual title and see what you get.

String title = driver.getTitle()
assertTrue(title, title.startsWith("Selenium simplified") );

(I wish there was a assertStartWith that does this automatically, just like assertEqual does).
