You need to add selenium-api library to your project CLASSPATH in order to be able to use Actions class.

I would strongly recommend using a build system like Maven or Gradle which provides automatic dependencies management so you could declare selenium-java and testng as your project dependencies and the remaining ones would be automatically resolved by Maven or Gradle.

Example Maven pom.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
    <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

    <groupId>com.example</groupId>
    <artifactId>java-selenium-maven</artifactId>
    <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
                <configuration>
                    <source>8</source>
                    <target>8</target>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
            <artifactId>selenium-java</artifactId>

        </dependency>
        <dependency>

            <artifactId>testng</artifactId>
            <version>7.0.0</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

</project>
