The error IllegalStateException: The driver is not executable: /Users/roja/Documents/GitHub/testautomation/chromedrivers/chromedriver_osx says it all. You have to make exactly 4 changes as follows :

• Change Webdriver.chrome.driver as :

  webdriver.chrome.driver
  

• Change /Users/roja/Automation/chromedriver_osx as we need to include the name of the webdriver binary i.e. chromedriver as a value :

  /Users/roja/Automation/chromedriver_osx/chromedriver
  

• Change driver = new ChromeDriver(); as :

  WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
  

• Remove unwanted throws InterruptedException to keep your code short and simple.

ERROR : java.lang.IllegalStateException: The path to the driver executable must be set by the webdriver.gecko.driver system property;

Please check your browser version as well. because selenium 2.X not support firefox 47+ versions.
