How to set Group name & dependency at runtime in TestNG

[Vidhya]

Hi,

 

I am new to TestNG. I am Automating REST API.  I have method1() in class A.  I have created one suite that contains 5 tests say test name  1, 2, 3, 4, 5. These test will always invoke Method1() with different parameter. If test 2 fails test 3 has to skip remaining tests has to continue. How I have to set dependency for this? Please give any guidance or reference links.

 

Thanks,

Vidhya

Hi Vidhya,

Are these five tests reside in same class?

If test3 has to be skipped, when test2 fails, you can follow the below sample code,

@Test

public void test1()

{

}

@Test

public void test2()

{

}

@Test((dependsOnMethods = { "test2" })

public void test3()

{

}

In this case, test3 will be skipped if test2 fails. If you want your test method to depend on many methods, you can use dependsOnGroups instead of dependsOnMethods.

Please refer to TestNG documentation for more details: http://testng.org/doc/documentation-main.html

Thanks,

Saif

Hi Saif,

 

Thanks for your response.  But I have to create the group & its dependency at runtime. For example I have method1(string testName) in class A, I’ll invoke this method 1000 times with different parameter “testName”. So the group has to created at runtime with the “testName”  and based on the name dependency has to set for the test.

 

I have my question @ https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/testng-users/gCkvHFgmT58 . Could you please help me. I still did not get the solution for this problem.

 

Thanks,

Vidhya

Hi Vidya,

>>>Thanks for your response.  But I have to create the group & its dependency at runtime. For example I have >>>method1(string testName) in class A, I’ll invoke this method 1000 times with different parameter >>>“testName”. So the group has to created at runtime with the “testName”  and based on the name >>>dependency has to set for the test.

   Why do you need groups for this? Can't you use data provider for this? This way you can invoke same method with different parameters.
