TestNG Annotations Helper Attributes in Selenium Webdriver

TestNG Annotations Attributes in Selenium With Example

TestNG Annotations Helper Attributes Syntax

The basic syntax of testing the annotations attribute is given below.

@Test(attribute="value")
public void testcase2()
{
System.out.println("This is testcase2");
}

TestNG Helper Attributes

description

The description is a TestNG annotation helper Attribute that describes the information about the test. Description is a string that is attached to the @Test annotation.

Example of Description

Example of Description TestNG annotation helper Attribute.

package testNGpackage;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class FirstTestNGprogram {
	

	@Test(description="This is testcase1") 
	public void userlogin() 
	{
    System.out.println("This is user Login");

    }
	@Test (description="This is testcase2") 
	public void cutomerlogin() 
	{
		System.out.println("This is cutomer Login");
	}
	
	}

timeOut

If any test case takes more than the defined time to execute and because of this the test case fails in this cases we can add the timeout for that test case only.

package testNGPackage;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class FirstTestngClass {
	
	@Test
	public void usersignup() {
		System.out.println("user Signup");
	}
	
	@Test
	public void membersingup() {
		System.out.println("This is Member singup");
	}
	
	@Test
	public void customersingup() {
		System.out.println("This Customer signup");
	}
	
	@Test (timeOut=4000)
	public void customerdetails() {
		System.out.println("This Customer Details");
	}

}

priority
dependsOnMethods

enabled

enabled is used to skip any method (Test Cases ) to run. The 'enabled' attribute contains the boolean value

Example of enabled helper Attribute

package testNGPackage;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class FirstTestngClass {
	
	@Test
	public void usersignup() {
		System.out.println("user Signup");
	}
	
	@Test
	public void membersingup() {
		System.out.println("This is Member singup");
	}
	
	@Test
	public void customersingup() {
		System.out.println("This Customer signup");
	}
	
	@Test (enabled=false)
	public void customerdetails() {
		System.out.println("This Customer Details");
	}

}

groups

The 'groups' attribute is used to run the test cases that belong to the same groups and different classes.

Let's understand the same with an example

Scenario:

Suppose we have to run a few test cases that belong to different Java classes.

Here We have created two Java classes and added the groups helper attribute to run the test cases.

Class 1

package testNGPackage;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class FirstTestngClass {

@Test
public void usersignup() {
System.out.println("user Signup");
}

@Test
public void membersingup() {
System.out.println("This is Member singup");
}

@Test(groups={"signup"})
public void customersingup() {
System.out.println("This Customer signup");
}

@Test
public void customerdetails() {
System.out.println("This Customer Details");
}

}

Class 2

package testNGPackage;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class SecondTestngClass {
@Test
public void usersignin() {
System.out.println("user Sign in");
}

@Test(groups={"signup"})
public void membersingin() {
System.out.println("This is Member singin");
}

@Test
public void customersingin() {
System.out.println("This Customer signin");
}
}
