face run selenium sripts in IE Browser
1)Path of the

to the driver executable must be set by the webdriver.ie.driver system property; for

version can be downloaded from http://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/index.html
Class IE
{
Public static void main(String args[])
{
WebDriver t=new InternetExplorerDriver();
t.get(“”);
}
}
This Error happened because of there is no
third browser in your system,you have to download the IE third party browser
from the site seleniumhq.org
Filename:IEDriverServer.exe 32 bit or 64 bit
public class IE {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver","D:\\IEDriverServer_x64_3.14.0\\IEDriverServer.exe");
