This happens at the very beginning (most probably the seleniumDriver.get(ddt.gv.get("app_url")); command) of the script execution process remotely via some ASP.net webapplication. As a result all the Test&Use cases fail.

The webdriver is internetexplorerdriver:

DesiredCapabilities ieCapabilities = DesiredCapabilities.internetExplorer();
ieCapabilities.setCapability("ignoreProtectedModeSettings" , true);

InternetExplorerDriver seleniumDriver = new InternetExplorerDriver(ieCapabilities);
seleniumDriver.get(ddt.gv.get("app_url"));

Are you trying to cleanup your test multiple times?

The thing is..

if you are doing driver.Close() or any type of cleanup multiple times, its gonna erase/close what you want to cleanup then those objects are not found and that is the error you get!

Hope it helps! Let me know!
