can you share the code as well – Saurabh Verma
pls check snapshot attached code is there – Narendra Singh
@NarendraSingh, i'm sorry i never worked on Appium, but just wanted to know a bit about the issue and see if can help, which line of code is throwing this error?. From the error i understand that one of the lines of the code, instead of passing string you have passed some thing else. – Siva
@siva line 22 is showing the error – Narendra Singh

Refer the following code to solve your problem

AppiumDriver driver;
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "Android");
capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "Android");
capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, "Chrome");
capabilities.setCapability("platformVersion", "5.0.2");
capabilities.setCapability("appPackage", "com.android.chrome");
capabilities.setCapability("appActivity","com.google.android.apps.chrome.ChromeTabbedActivity");
driver= new AppiumDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"), capabilities);
driver.get("http://google.com");

@Narendra Singh - The below solution should work -

private AndroidDriver driver;
public static String baseurl;

@Before
public void setup() throws MalformedURLException
{
    System.out.println("Create driver and launch Chrome");
    DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities ();
    capabilities.setCapability("browsername","chrome");
    capabilities.setCapability("device","android");
    capabilities.setCapability("devicename","OssCube");
    capabilities.setCapability("platformversion","4.4.2");
    capabilities.setCapability("platformname","Android");
    capabilities.setCapability("appPackage","com.android.chrome");
   capabilities.setCapability("appActivity","com.google.android.apps.chrome.Main");
    driver=new AndroidDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"), capabilities);
    baseurl = "https://www.google.com";
    driver.get(baseurl);
    }

How do you run your test?
