Fix TypeNotPresentException

in Selenium

Solution

The "TypeNotPresentException" in Selenium usually indicates that a required class or interface is missing from the classpath during runtime, often due to an outdated or incompatible selenium-api version or a missing dependency. To fix this, ensure your selenium-api dependency version aligns with the selenium-java version you're using, and explicitly include any optional dependencies (like html5 for WebStorage) that provide the missing classes in your project's build configuration (e.g., pom.xml for Maven, build.gradle for Gradle). Rebuild your project after updating dependencies.
