@Test and @BeforeMethod/@AfterMethod run in different thread?

[manishn...@gmail.com]

Hi All,

I see that if I have @BeforeMethod @Test and @AfterMethod, and if running in parallel methods, then I see there are 2 thread id - one for @BeforeMethod and @AfterMethod and another for @Test 

Is there a way so that entire flow of related methods - @BeforeMethod @Test and @AfterMethod - are in same thread?

Thanks,

Manish

Manish,

Do you have a sample which can show this behavior ?

I can't simulate the problem on TestNG 6.9.11. If you look at the output you would notice that for each of the @Test methods [ I have two], the @BeforeMethod and @AfterMethod run on the same thread.

Here's my test class, my xml file and the output.

import org.testng.annotations.AfterMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class BeforeMethodTestMethodThreadId {
    @BeforeMethod
    public void beforeMethod() {
        printer("beforeMethod");
    }

    @Test
    public void testMethod() {
        printer("testMethod");
    }

    @Test
    public void anotherTestMethod() {
        printer("anotherTestMethod");
    }

    @AfterMethod
    public void afterMethod() {
        printer("afterMethod");
    }

    private void printer(String methodName) {
        String msg = String.format("%s() is running on Thread id [%d]", methodName, Thread.currentThread().getId());
        System.err.println("[DEBUGGER] :" + msg);

    }
}

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">
<suite name="Class1Suite" parallel="methods" verbose="2">
    <test name="Class1Test">

        </classes>
    </test> <!-- Class1Test -->
</suite> <!-- Class1Suite -->

Thanks Krishnan.

I realised that the issue I had was due to timeOut in my suite in testng.xml

Thanks,

manish

Thanks for following up on your own post with the solution. You saved me quite the headache!

It is still a problem in version 6.10. Had to figure it out by myself and spent a lot of time. And only afterwards checked this group for this topic =(

Hi but if @Test is disabled will the @BeforeMethod still run?

[Krishnan Mahadevan]

What happens when you tried doing it?

 

Thanks & Regards
