A TestNG class can have various TestNG methods such as @BeforeTest, @AfterTest, @BeforeSuite, @BeforeClass, @BeforeMethod, @test, etc. In this article, we will explain the order of execution of different TestNG methods.TestNG consists of the following methods to support the main @Test method. The order of execution should be as follows − Key points in this order are:First of all, beforeSuite() method is executed only once.The afterSuite() method executes only once.Even the methods beforeTest(), beforeClass(), afterClass(), and afterTest() methods are executed only once.beforeMethod() method executes for each test case (every time for a new ...

TestNG supports default report generation when a user runs testng.xml, either from an IDE or the command line. By default, all reports are generated at the Project -> test-output folder. If the test-output folder is not present, then TestNG creates it at runtime and saves all the files related to the result.However, the user can provide a desired location or folder name where TestNG should save the reports. It can be done using native dependency injection. It allows to declare additional parameters in methods. At runtime, TestNG automatically fills these parameters with the correct values.To set up the output directory ... Read More

TestNG supports multiple ways to skip or ignore a @Test execution. Based on requirement, the user can skip a complete test without executing it at all or skip a test based on a specific condition. If the condition meets at the time of execution, it skips the remaining code in the test.One can use the following ways to skip a @Test execution −Use the parameter enabled=false at @Test. By default, this parameter is set as True.Use throw new SkipException(String message) to skip a test.Conditional Skip − User can have a condition check. If the condition is met, it will throw ...

TestNG supports native dependency injection. It allows to declare additional parameters in methods. At runtime, TestNG automatically fills these parameters with the correct values. Here's a set of native dependencies in TestNG:ITestContextXmlTestMethodITestResultThese dependencies help to retrieve the name of Test method. The name of a Test method can be retrieved before or after the execution of the test.If the user wants to get the name of a Test method prior to its execution, then @BeforeMethod can be useful to retrieve it.On the other hand, if the user wants to know which Test method is just executed, then @AfterMethod can be ...

TestNG supports multiple ways to skip or ignore a @Test execution. Based on requirement, a user can skip a complete test without executing it at all from BeforeSuite, if a condition is met. If the condition meets at the time of execution, it skips the running of @Test methods.Conditional Skip is a proper way to force-end an entire test suite, if a condition is met in @BeforeSuite method.Conditional Skip − User can have a condition check. If the condition is met, it will throw a SkipException and skip the rest of the code.In this article, we will demonstrate how to ... Read More

TestNG allows to run the test suites from the command line (cmd). Here's a set of prerequisites that must be fulfilled in order to run a test suite from the command line −testng.xml file should be created to define the test suites and the testing classes to execute.All dependent jars should be available inside a project folder. It includes testing.jar, jcommander.jar and any other jars used in the test cases.Path of bin or out folder where the .class files are stored after the compilation.Approach/Algorithm to solve this problemStep 1 − Create different testing classes having different @Test methodsStep 2 − ...

TestNG supports native dependency injection. It allows to declare additional parameters in methods. At runtime, TestNG automatically fills these parameters with the correct values. Here is a set of native dependencies in TestNG −ITestContextXmlTestMethodITestResultThese dependencies help to retrieve the time taken by a Test method to execute. The time taken to execute a Test method can be retrieved only after the execution of the test.If the user wants to get the time taken by the method after its execution, then @AfterMethod can be useful to retrieve it. @AfterMethod supports all these native dependencies. The full access of these dependencies is ... Read More

A TestNG class can have various TestNG methods such as @BeforeTest, @AfterTest, @BeforeSuite, @BeforeClass, @BeforeMethod, @test, etc. Thereare various scenarios where we need to carry forward a few variables from thesemethods to the main @Test method. Since none of these methods support return type, the best way to pass a variable is using class /instance variable rather thanlocal variable.The scope of class/instance variable is within the entire class. As a result, whatevervalue is set up at @BeforeTest or @BeforeMethod can be utilized at @Test method.In this article, we will see how to pass a variable from @BeforeTest to @Test annotation ...

TestNG supports native dependency injection. It allows to declare additional parameters in methods. At runtime, TestNG automatically fills these parameters with the correct values. Here is a set of native dependencies in TestNG −ITestContextXmlTestMethodITestResultThese dependencies help to retrieve the name of the Test methods. If the user wants to retrieve the names of all the Test methods that are going to get executed, then the best place is @BeforeSuite or @AfterSuite.@BeforeSuite and @AfterSuite support only ITestContext.

TestNG supports multithreading, i.e., a @Test method can be invoked multiple times in parallel. TestNG by default assigns the integer ID to the thread. Sometimes, it is required to debug for a specific thread or create custom report for a user-provided thread name. In such a scenario, setting up the thread name is good before execution to easily identify the executed tests/steps.In this article, we will illustrate how to set thread name as user input.Approach/Algorithm to solve this problemStep 1 − Create a TestNG class, NewTestngClass.Step 2 − Write a @Test method in the class NewTestngClass as shown in the ...
