It helps to maintain dependencies and their version at one place in pom.xml User can run ... Read More

TestNG is a testing framework and can use Maven as build tool. It helps to maintain dependencies and their version at one place in pom.xml Maven provides flexibility to run using surefire plugin. If a user has multiple testng.xml files (please note one testng files contains only one test suite), he/she may run the specific suite based on the requirement. Maven provides the flexibility to define suiteXMLFiles as variable and pass the value of variable at run time using command line. Jenkins is a CI/CD tool and same flexibility it provides us to run specific testng.xml from multiple suites. In ... Read More

User may encounter Cannot find class in classpath exception while executing tests in TestNG framework. The meaning of this error is TestNG unable to find the class as mentioned in testng.xml. This can be caused because of the following reasons − In the TestNG XML, the class tag having the name attribute. User should define the class name as . format.

Errors within the project are present and may require a clean project. ... Read More

TestNG is a testing framework and can use Maven as build tool. It helps to maintain dependencies and their version at one place in pom.xml Maven provides flexibility to run using surefire plugin. Surefire plugin has feature to pass parameter from command line to testng.xml. To achieve this, user should have to define parameter in testng.xml with default value. At run time, the user must send to parameter value to override default value. In this way, the value passed in command line take the preference and TestNG class uses it. If the value is not passed from command line, then ... Read More

TestNG allows to run the test suites from IntelliJ IDE as well as command line. When user run the testing.xml either from IDE or command line, TestNG generates a default report. It saves all reports and respective html files in Project −>test−output folder. If folder is not present, TestNG creates the folder. However, user can disable the default test report generation if they are using customized or external reporting mechanism. In this article we will evaluate how to disable the generation of default test reports: Disable while running through IntelliJ IDE Disable while running through command line Disable ... Read More

A TestNG class can have different tests like test1, test2, test3 etc. Once a user runs the TestNG class consisting of various tests, it runs the test cases in alphabetically order based on the name provided. However, user can assign the priority to these tests so that these tests can run as per user’s priority. Priority starts from 0 and be in incremental order. Priority 0 takes the highest priority and decreasing the priority when priority gets increase as 1, 2, 3 etc. In this article, let’s analyse how to control the order of execution in different ways. Scenario 1 ... Read More

Group test is a new innovative feature in TestNG, which doesn’t exist in JUnit framework. It permits you to dispatch methods into proper portions and perform sophisticated groupings of test methods Not only can you declare those methods that belong to groups, but you can also specify groups that contain other groups. Then, TestNG can be invoked and asked to include a certain set of groups (or regular expressions), while excluding another set. Group tests provide maximum flexibility in how you partition your tests and doesn't require you to recompile anything if you want to run two different sets of ... Read More
