When running WebDriver using any browser that is not Firefox you will need to use a third-party WebDriver.

Use the links Aravin has provided to download the WebDrivers.

You will also need to set a system property to where the third party driver files are located.

Here's an example of setting up a new ChromeDriver instance in Java:

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "path/to/chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

IE:

System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver",  "path/to/iedriver.exe");
WebDriver = new InternetExplorerDriver();

This should set you up a local instance for the above browsers.

If you are thinking of using grid, you can find plenty of info in the docs

You have to use the corresponding driver for the browser to execute your scenario.

For Chrome: https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/ChromeDriver

For IE: https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/InternetExplorerDriver

For Safari: https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/SafariDriver

You can configure this in env.rb file of your project.
