1. MouseHover using WebDriver

actions.MoveToElement(element).Click().Build().Perform();

2. ChromeDriver Usage

Don't forget to include the ChromeDriver.exe before executing webdriver script.

2. WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
3. driver.get("http://www.google.com");

3. Set to trust all SecurityCertificates

1. RemoteControlConfiguration rcc = new RemoteControlConfiguration ();
2. rcc.setTrustAllSSLCertificates(true);
3. SeleniumServer seleniumserver=new SeleniumServer(rcc);
4. seleniumserver.boot();
5. seleniumserver.start();
6. setUp("https://www.google.com/", "*firefox");
7. selenium.open("/");

Also you can avoid SSL problems using firefox profiles.

1. When you start Selenium RC Server, you can ask it to use a particular Firefox Profile as following:

1. java -jar selenium-server2.jar -firefoxProfileTemplate "C:\Users\XXXXXXX\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ab815bdy.Selenium"

FF allows to Trust certain website, and never prompt you again. So, you create this profile first, then ask Selenium to use this FF Profile.
