Answer 1

Let me brief out the requirements first. You need to download the chrome web driver zip from here. https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=2.33/

Extract the file and store it in a desired location.

Create a new project in Eclipse and include the following code in your class.

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\temp\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

Explanation : System.setProperty(key,value):

Key is default and same for all the systems, value is the location of your chromedriver extract file.
