I'm using Selenium 3.4.0, Java 1.8 and Firefox 54.0.1(64 bit). I'm getting a null pointer exception when I try to open a link with Firefox. When I use Selenium/Python it works fine, but I'm trying to run the code from this guru 99 page (https://www.guru99.com/first-webdriver-script.html).I've searched to see if anyone else has had this problem, but I can't find any solutions. I get the following output:
