TestNG Tutorial

TestNG is an open source testing framework that provides more powerful and flexible testing capabilities than JUnit such as annotations, grouping, sequencing, and parameterization of test cases. It allows control over test case execution order and generation of reports. Some advantages over JUnit include easier annotations, support for more lifecycle methods, and ability to group, filter and run test cases in parallel.

Introduction to TestNG

TestNG is one of the most widely used open source testing framework used in automation testing
suite.

TestNG

• TestNG is a very important framework when you are actually developing the framework
from scratch level.
• TestNG provides you full control over the test cases and the execution of the test cases.
Due to this reason, TestNG is also known as a testing framework.
• Cedric Beust is the developer of a TestNG framework.
• If you want to run a test case A before that as a pre-request you need to run multiple test
cases before you begin a test case A. You can set and map with the help of TestNG so that
pre-request test cases run first and then only it will trigger a test case A. In such way, you
can control the test cases.
• TestNG framework came after Junit, and TestNG framework adds more powerful
functionality and easier to use.
• It is an open source automated TestNG framework. In TestNG, NG stands for "Next
Generation".
• TestNG framework eliminates the limitations of the older framework by providing more
powerful and flexible test cases with help of easy annotations, grouping, sequencing and
parametrizing.

Advantages of TestNG

• In TestNG, annotations are easier to understand than Junit.


• It produces the HTML reports for implementation.
• It also generates the Logs.
• In TestNG, there is no constraint available such as @beforeclass and @afterclass which is
present in Junit.
• TestNG enables you to group the test cases easily which is not possible in JUnit.
• TestNG supports three additional levels such as @Before/After suite, @Before/AfterTest,
and Before/AfterGroup.
• TestNG does not extend any class. TestNG framework allows you to define the test cases
where each test case is independent of other test cases.
• It allows you to run the test cases of a particular group. Let's consider a scenario where we
have created two groups such as 'Smoke' and 'Regression'. If you want to execute the test
cases in a 'Regression' group, then this can only be possible in the TestNG framework.

• Parallel execution of test cases, i.e., running multiple test cases is only possible in the
TestNG framework.
