Tests Vs Methods in TestNG

[Kumar]

Hi,

Please see the attached screenshot and it shows methods passed instead of tests.

Why?

Do I need to ensure it shows tests passed or its okay?

Thanks,

Kumar

Tests means how many <test> tags you have in your xml files.

Tim, 

I agree.

I have more than one @test annotations in my code, but still it shows only one test, but correct number of methods.

I have a method immediately after the @test annotation.

Thanks,

Kumar.

By the way, I am not using any xml file here.

What is the purpose of using xml files here?

How efficient can I make my automation test with it?

Thanks,

Kumar

Hi Kumar,

Actually, you can use xml files to compose your suite like this:

<suite name="xx">

<listeners>

<listener class-name="a.b.c.xxx"></listener>

</listeners>

<test name="yy">

<classes>

<class name="a.b.c.GGGG"></class>

</classes>

</test>

<test name="yfy">

<classes>

<class name="a.b.c.GGGG"></class>

</classes>

</test>

</suite>

If you do not define this and run your code using testng eclipse plugin, it will help you generate a default xml file in your tmp folder.

Kumar,

I think you need to spend sometime reading the documentation on the testng site. Most of your questions would be answered on your own once you read the documentation. 

When you right click your class and run it as run as TestNG test, what TestNG does is, it adds up your @Test annotated test methods into a <test> tag which again gets wrapped up into a <suite>. 

In short a test suite <suite> contains of one or more <test> tests. Every <test> contains one or more @Test annotated test methods.
