下面演示一个很简单的例子，就是通过webdriver打开一个浏览器，然后访问google，搜索一个字符串，再显示结果页面的title。例子都是从selenium文档里抄的，语言为java。

1. 安装jdk，maven（记得设置JAVA_HOME, M2_HOME宏）
2. 在firefox安装selenium的插件
3. 新建工程目录，创建pom.xml，内容如下

   
   
           4.0.0
           MySel20Proj
           MySel20Proj
           1.0
           
               UTF-8
           
           
               
                   org.seleniumhq.selenium
                   selenium-java
                   2.37.0
               
               
                   com.opera
                   operadriver
               
           
           
               
                   
                       com.opera
                       operadriver
                       1.5
                       
                           
                               org.seleniumhq.selenium
                               selenium-remote-driver
                           
                       
                   
               
           
   
   
   

4. 在目录里执行: mvn clean install
5. 在Idea里import新生成的maven project
6. 创建子目录 src\main\java\org.openqa.selenium
7. 在子目录下创建文件Selenium2Example.java， 内容如下

   package org.openqa.selenium.example;
   
   import org.openqa.selenium.By;
   import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
   import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
   import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
   import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedCondition;
   import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;
   
   public class Selenium2Example  {
       static WebDriver driver ;
   
       public static void main(String[] args) {
           // Create a new instance of the Firefox driver
           // Notice that the remainder of the code relies on the interface,
           // not the implementation.
           driver = new FirefoxDriver();
   
           // And now use this to visit Google
           driver.get("http://www.google.com");
           // Alternatively the same thing can be done like this
           // driver.navigate().to("http://www.google.com");
   
           // Find the text input element by its name
           WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.name("q"));
   
           // Enter something to search for
           element.sendKeys("Cheese!");
   
           // Now submit the form. WebDriver will find the form for us from the element
           element.submit();
   
           // Check the title of the page
           System.out.println("Page title is: " + driver.getTitle());
   
           // Google's search is rendered dynamically with JavaScript.
           // Wait for the page to load, timeout after 10 seconds
           (new WebDriverWait(driver, 10)).until(new ExpectedCondition() {
               public Boolean apply(WebDriver d) {
                   return d.getTitle().toLowerCase().startsWith("cheese!");
               }
           });
   
           // Should see: "cheese! - Google Search"
           System.out.println("Page title is: " + driver.getTitle());
   
           //Close the browser
           driver.quit();
       }
   }

8. 在项目目录执行如下命令：
   mvn compile
   mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=”org.openqa.selenium.example.Selenium2Example”

   运行后就能看到一个firefox窗口被创建出来，自动访问google并搜索， 在console窗口中会看到title的输出
