- Selenium Library

to run this app properly "Chrome" should be installed and set-up properly on the machine, otherwise it may not run as expected.
There's no configuration required.
This is an simple maven-app, clone the app using git or download it, run App.java and then it'll start the application.
It'll ask credentials for Your LinkedIn Email address and Password in terminal.
And it'll ask you to about Chrome whether you want to open chrome (with opened chrome it can slow down the process) or without opening chrome (it'll perform action automatically in both) and it'll ask for number to fetch profiles.
When it'll finished scrapping it'll print out the following statement:
