Can somebody give me simple example to override test name at run time ?

[Sonu]

Here is my code looks:

package com.tesla.ztesting;

import org.testng.ITest;

import org.testng.annotations.AfterMethod;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class test implements ITest

{

String testName = "ddd";    

@Test

public void factoryTest1() {

}

@Override

public String getTestName() {

    return this.testName;

}

@AfterMethod

public void setTestName( String name ) {

    this.testName = name;

}   

}

What is your expected output with this code?
When do you want to see the name of your test changed? 
if thats the case you woiuldn't want to have the setTestName called in the AfterMethod that would be after the test is over.

Yes, I created a project that does that here:  http://djangofan.github.io/testng-custom-report-example/

After each test execution I want to change the method name for the reporting purpose. Can you please tell me the example?

Hi Jon,

Thanks for your reply on my question.

I tried to implement your project but in the default report I don't see the change name. Please find the attachment.

Thanks,
Ram.

That is because it changes the name while the test is running and so the name change doesn't show up in the Eclipse integration.  You need to open the HTML report in the  target directory to see the changed name.    Since I created that project I think I know how to change the name displayed in the Eclipse integration but I haven't tried it yet.  Basically, in the @BeforeMethod, pass a Object[] that contains the test name and then apply the name change within that before method.  Haven't tried it yet, but wanted to let you know what I was thinking.

Just wanted to update everyone that my "custom report" example that I linked to on this thread works fine as long as you don't use a data provider.  When you get a data provider involved, then the class instance is shared between multiple runs and the TestNG report shows the same name for all runs of that test.   Still haven't solved that problem but hopefully I will someday.
