Regular expression to run all test class

[sunny sachdeva]

HI,

I want to know if we can provide regular expression in testng.xml. My requirement is that I want to run all the test classes inside a particular folder. Fpr ex  src/test/ModuleA contains 100 test classes.

<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd" >

<suite name="Sanity" verbose="1" parallel="none"

preserve-order="true">

<test name="Sanity Test">

<classes>

<class name="com.demo.test.ModuleA.Class1" />

<class name="com.demo.test.ModuleA.Class2" />

<class name="com.demo.test.ModuleA.Class3" />

....and so on

</classes>

</test>

</suite>

I guess we can might achieve this using bean shell scripting but with my limited knowledge, I am not able to able to do so.

Can someone please help me in this.

Thanks in advance

Sunny

Why not just use packages ? Wouldn't that help ?

+1 for the question!

I thought the same but in packages they may be multiple folders and each folder may have multiple files. Here, I would need to run cases based on folders instead of package. How can I do this?

  <test name="All Tests" preserve-order="false">
    <packages>
      <package name="com.company.testarea1.*"></package>
    </packages>
  </test>

That will run all the tests in that package and sub packages

Here's how you can leverage beanshell to do this [ using this you can choose to selectively run one or more classes from a given package etc., ]

Please make sure that you go through the below links

My blog post which explains how to work with beanshell : https://rationaleemotions.wordpress.com/2013/08/21/beanshell-and-testng/

TestNG documentation, which explains what all is exposed by TestNG to a beanshell : http://testng.org/doc/documentation-main.html#beanshell

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">

<suite name="Suite" parallel="false">

    <test name="Test">

        <method-selectors>

            <method-selector>

                <script language="beanshell">

                <![CDATA[regex = System.getProperty("classPattern");

                testngMethod.getRealClass().getCanonicalName().contains(regex); // feel free to change this to any other method exposed by the String class

                ]]>

                </script>

            </method-selector>

        </method-selectors>

        <packages>

              <package name="com.company.testarea1.*"/>

        </packages>

    </test> <!-- Test -->

</suite> <!-- Suite -->
