 In the context of selenium, you can solve the issue of “ org.openqa.selenium.webdriverexception” by investigating potential issues that are causing the exception. You can start by examining the error message and then you can stack trace for the task of identifying the root cause. Some common causes include element not found, timeout issues, or unexpected page changes. You can use try-catch blocks for the task of handling the exceptions gracefully.

Here is the example given below:-

Import org.openqa.selenium.By;
Import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
Import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
Import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
Public class WebDriverExceptionExample {
    Public static void main(String[] args) {
        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
        Try {
            // Your test code here
            WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id(“exampleId”));
            Element.click();
        } catch (org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException e) {
            // Handle the exception, log details, and take appropriate actions
            System.err.println(“WebDriverException: “ + e.getMessage());
        } finally {
            // Close the browser session
            Driver.quit();
        }
    }
}

Therefore, by using these above steps you as a user can get rid of the issues such as “org.openqa.selenium.webdriverexception”.
