Learning Selenium 2 with WebDriver in C# can be much harder than it should be. When I started using it in version 2.4.0 I tried a bunch of samples pulled from other peoples blogs and none of the samples worked without having to add/edit code sometimes extensively. I quickly identified a couple reasons for this the code samples didn't work out of the box.
1) First they didn't provide the version of selenium used, this was especially a big problem at the beginning because changes and new features were being added all the time to Selenium 2
2) Second (C# != Java) a lot of the C# samples I found were written Java, also a lot of the C# questions on sites like StackOverflow are written in... Java!
So here is my C# sample that I wrote in C#, good luck.
I started with the Selenium 2.33.0.0 libraries

using OpenQA.Selenium; using OpenQA.Selenium.Firefox; using NUnit.Framework; using System; namespace BasicWebDriver { [TestFixture] public class BasicGoogleTest { [Test] public void SearchForTest() { string searchText = "Selenium 2 WebDriver C# Basic Example"; using (IWebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver()) { driver.Manage().Timeouts().ImplicitlyWait(new TimeSpan(0, 0, 10)); driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://rickcasady.blogspot.com"); driver.FindElement(By.Id("b-query")).SendKeys(searchText); driver.FindElement(By.Name("b-query-icon")).Click(); Assert.NotNull(driver.FindElement(By.PartialLinkText(searchText))); } } } }and don't copy this into Eclipse it might not compile.....
