In this blog article, we show you how to stop Selenium Server using Apache HTTP Client GET method. The Apache HttpClient library simplifies handling HTTP requests. To use this library download the binaries with dependencies from http://hc.apache.org/.

//URL to stop Selenium Server
String strURL="http://localhost:4444/selenium-server/driver/?cmd=shutDownSeleniumServer";

//HTTP Default client Object
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();

//HTTP Get Object
HttpGet request = new HttpGet(strURL);

//Executing the request
HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);
