I’m just taking a quick look at your code and I see a few things that may assist you.

  1. you duplicate the following two import statements at the top of your code:
import org.openqa.selenium.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
  1. you identify a variable, driver, in your class, Test, as:
    private WebDriver driver;
    but you declare and instantiate another object in your method main(String[] args), with the same name (but is NOT the same object) through the declaration:
    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
    Because of the way you declared and initialized this variable, the variable is also scoped to just the method “main()” and is NOT available to the rest of your program. Change the initialization of driver above to just:
    driver = new ChromeDriver();
    and then it should be available because of your first private declaration.
  2. With the above change, then your variable, driver, will become initialized for use in your method, testSpinConnect(). How your code is now, I don’t see how driver in this method can be initialized and therefore could be your NullPointer source.

Edit: “scoped” means there is a limited range that the variable can be used.

I will rectify issues as per your suggestions.
Thank you so much Mike. And also, thank you for the kind response.
