    com.example
    bar
    0.0.1-SNAPSHOT
    bar
    bar

    
        
            junit
            junit
            4.12
        
        
            org.apache.maven.plugins
            maven-resources-plugin
            3.0.1
        
        
            org.seleniumhq.selenium
            selenium-java
            3.0.0-beta3
        
        
            org.seleniumhq.selenium
            selenium-server
            3.0.0-beta3
        
        
            org.seleniumhq.selenium
            selenium-api
            3.0.0-beta3
        
        
            org.seleniumhq.selenium
            selenium-firefox-driver
            3.0.0-beta3
        
    
    
        bar
    

and

package bar;

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class AppTest {

    /**
     * Web driver.
     */
    private static WebDriver driver = null;

    /**
     * Entry point.
     * 
     * @param args
     * @throws InterruptedException
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
        // Download "geckodriver.exe" from https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases
        System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","F:\\geckodriver.exe");
        driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
        driver.get("http://localhost:8080/foo/");
        String sTitle = driver.getTitle();
        System.out.println(sTitle);
    }

}

You also use on Mac OS X, Linux: https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases

and

// On Mac OS X.
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "/Users/donhuvy/Downloads/geckodriver");
