This error message...

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problem: 
WebDriver cannot be resolved to a type

...implies that there were compilation issues in your program.

It is pretty evident from the snapshot you are using Selenium v3.6.0 but I don't see any error as such in your code block. However you can follow the below mentioned steps to solve the issue:

  • The Package name i.e. Test and the Class name i.e. Test needs to be different. You can't use the same name for the package and the class.
  • Upgrade JDK to recent levels JDK 8u202.
  • Upgrade Selenium to current levels Version 3.141.59.
  • Upgrade ChromeDriver to current ChromeDriver v2.46 level.
  • Keep Chrome version between Chrome v71-73 levels. (as per ChromeDriver v2.46 release notes)
  • Clean your Project Workspace through your IDE and Rebuild your project with required dependencies only.

You need selenium-java on your classpath. The latest version at time of writing is 3.141.59.
