How to set TestNG in classpath in Maven project?

[Gajanan Mahajan]

In order to run TestNG tests on command line, I'll have to set TestNG in classpath. To do so, I went through -

Unable to execute TestNG Suite file via command line

Getting error Could not find or load main class org.testng.TestNG

which tells that if testng.jar is in lib folder of the project, then do set path until lib folder(like - C:\Workspace\projectname\lib\*) in classpath.

But in my case, I'm using Maven project and hence don't have lib folder to put jars. In this case, how can I set TestNG in classpath? And hence run TestNG tests on command line.

You can add the TestNG artifact[1] as testdependency and then run "mvn test" to execute your tests. The M-Surefire-Plugin understands TestNG.[2]

Hi,

You can use maven itself to execute your tests. You need to do following things to use maven:
- Add Testng as dependent jar with scope as "test".
- Use surefire plugin.
- Your test classes should be placed under src/test/java folder or configure your pom.xml to set test source directory.

Without any contextual information in terms of what you are doing to trigger this error, there's hardly anyone can do to help you out.

So please help share a sample project which we can use to reproduce the error.

The error clearly says that testNG is not able to find your listener class. Please double check your class's fully qualified class name.

Thanks & Regards
