Basic motor programming help

Hello,

We are trying to get two motors to run with this program, but when we run it, the build is successful but nothing happens. We are using the Java Deploy feature to compile the program to the RoboRio. Both of our Talon SRX motors have successfully connected to our RoboRio using CAN cables and are showing orange alternating lights.

We are assuming that the motors should automatically run once we deploy the program, but we may be wrong about this. Is there something wrong in our code below or our method of compilation?

Code:
package org.usfirst.frc.team6560.robot;

//import edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.IterativeRobot;
import edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.Joystick;
import edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.RobotDrive;
import edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.Timer;
import edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.CANTalon;
import edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.SampleRobot;
//import edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.livewindow.LiveWindow;

/**
 * The VM is configured to automatically run this class, and to call the
 * functions corresponding to each mode, as described in the IterativeRobot
 * documentation. If you change the name of this class or the package after
 * creating this project, you must also update the manifest file in the resource
 * directory.
 */
public class Robot extends SampleRobot {
	RobotDrive myRobot;
	Joystick stick;
	int autoLoopCounter;
	CANTalon testMotor0 = new CANTalon(1);
	CANTalon testMotor1 = new CANTalon(15);
	
    /**
     * This function is run when the robot is first started up and should be
     * used for any initialization code.
     */
    public void robotInit() {
    	myRobot = new RobotDrive(testMotor0, testMotor1);
    	//stick = new Joystick(0);
    }
    
    /*
     * This function is run once each time the robot enters autonomous mode
     */
    public void autonomousInit() {
    	//autoLoopCounter = 0;
    }
  

    /**
     * This function is called periodically during autonomous
     */
    public void autonomousPeriodic() {
    	//testMotor0.set(0.2);
    	while(isAutonomous() && isEnabled()) {
    		myRobot.setSafetyEnabled(false);
    		myRobot.drive(-0.5, 0.0);
    		Timer.delay(2.0);
    		myRobot.drive(0.0, 0.0);
    	}
    }
    
}
Thanks,
