Selenium webdriver automation, automating context menu options - selenium-webdriver

Question

I am not able to click on any element after doing right click in selenium(Java).
Its just doing a right click and is not clicking of any of the options like open in new tab...Instead its just doing a normal click after doing a right click.Can anyone please help me.Below is my code
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\Selenium\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver wd=new ChromeDriver();
wd.get("http://google.com");
Thread.sleep(3000);
//Point a=wd.findElement(By.linkText("Testing")).getLocation();
WebElement b=wd.findElement(By.linkText("About"));
Actions action=new Actions(wd);
//action.contextClick(b).sendKeys(Keys.ARROW_DOWN).sendKeys(Keys.ENTER).perform();
action.moveToElement(b);
Thread.sleep(4000);
//action.contextClick(b);
action.contextClick(b);
action.sendKeys(Keys.ARROW_DOWN).sendKe ys(Keys.ENTER).build().perform();
I have tried via context click and move to element as well but no result.Thanks in advance..

Might be this is what you want:
To select the item from the contextual menu, you have to just move your mouse positions with the use of Key down event like this:-
Actions action= new Actions(driver);
action.contextClick(b).sendKeys(Keys.ARROW_DOWN).sendKeys(Keys.ARROW_DOWN).sendKeys(Keys.RETURN).build().perform();

As per request in the comments adding alternative way to open a link in new tab.
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver= new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("http://www.google.com/");
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30);
Thread.sleep(3000);
WebElement b=driver.findElement(By.linkText("About"));
Actions action=new Actions(driver);
action.moveToElement(b).perform();
Thread.sleep(4000);
action.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL);
action.click();
action.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL).build().perform();
//action.sendKeys(Keys.RETURN).perform();
Thread.sleep(4000);
driver.quit();
The build() method is used compile all the listed actions into a single step. We use build() when we are performing sequence of operations. We can directly use perform() if we are performing single action. You can read more about Actions class.
Also, re-iterating that I was unable to find the root of the issue in the limited time I had, so I placed a work around. So like we use the shortcut CTRL+CLICK to open the link in new tab manually, You might need to find out the shortcut for what you need, you can refer this : https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/157179?hl=en
Hope it helps :)
