Retry BeforeTest operation using RetryAnalyzer.

[Aliasger Kiranawala]

Hello Team,

If there is any failure in Before (Test, Class, Suite) how to make them considered for Retry using Retry Analyzer?

[⇜Krishnan Mahadevan⇝]

To the best of my knowledge, configuration methods cannot be retried.

Thanks & Regards
Krishnan Mahadevan

Thanks Krishnan

[⇜Krishnan Mahadevan⇝]

I remember now...

I recently fixed a bug within IConfigurable interface so that configuration methods can be retried via an IConfigurable implementation.

The fix should be released as part of 7.2.0

After it gets released, you should be able to retry configuration methods that failed using an approach as shown in this unit test

Thanks & Regards

Thanks Krishnan, I will try your approach.

[Aliasger Kiranawala]

Krishnan,

One more query, can we have some other conventions for those tests failed in first attempt and passed in second so that they dont appear under skipped column? This is causing a conflict when actual tests are getting skipped due to genuine reasons. 

[Aliasger Kiranawala]

Hey Krishnan,

Saw your thread about release of 7.3.0 version. 

For this situation to take care do I still need to override IConfigurable method or TestNG will take care of it?

[⇜Krishnan Mahadevan⇝]

You would need to build the retry logic within your IConfigurable implementation for the configuration to be retried. 

Please see this unit test for reference https://github.com/cbeust/testng/blob/master/src/test/java/test/hook/issue2257/TestClassSample.java

Thanks & Regards
Krishnan Mahadevan

Hey Krishnan,

I tried your suggestion and improvised a little bit. Created a RetryBaseTest which implements IConfigurable interface and overrides run method.
Test class extends this RetryBaseTest so that I dont have to override run method.
I am version 7.3 but seeing that @BeforeClass annotations not going for a retry in case of 5xx failures. Can you suggest something? I have not seen a retry happened due to some other issue either in recent days but it worked fine when I initially implemented it.

Thanks,

Aliasger

[Krishnan Mahadevan]

Can you share a sample project that can be used to reproduce the problem ?

 

Thanks & Regards

I afraid I cannot because the project is linked internally with multiple common items. 

As I explained you can try calling api throwing 5xx error in @BeforeTest and and using IConfigurable try retry. I am also not 100% sure because its working sometime.

[⇜Krishnan Mahadevan⇝]

Without a sample, there's not much that I can do as well. I will side-step and let someone else help you out with your query.

Thanks & Regards

Sorry Krishnan, I will see if I can prepare sample for it, Meanwhile If anyone faced this issue when config setup observe 5xx retry didn't happen then please suggest here.

Hello Krishnan,

Using RetryAnalyzer to retry a test and if I have @BeforeTest and @AfterTest in a test class, if first attempt fails will @AfterTest will not execute?

[⇜Krishnan Mahadevan⇝]

Can you please share a sample that shows what you are trying to do? That would add a bit more context in terms of your expectations.

In a nutshell: RetryAnalyser is meant to retry a test method alone. To the best of my knowledge its scope ends with this expectation.

Thanks & Regards
