TestNG Testing Skill

When to Use

Use this skill when you need generates TestNG tests in Java with groups, data providers, parallel execution, XML suite configuration, and listeners. Use when user mentions "TestNG", "@DataProvider", "testng.xml", "groups". Triggers on: "TestNG", "@DataProvider", "testng.xml", "TestNG suite", "parallel tests Java".

Examples are separate fragments: supply loginService/dashboard and the project AuthenticationException, import org.testng.asserts.SoftAssert and listener interfaces as needed. The three parallel suite lines are alternatives, not one valid XML document. Maven suite-property/report locations depend on the actual Surefire configuration; inspect pom.xml rather than assuming these commands configure it. Isolate test users/data and per-thread browser/service state before parallel execution, and close only resources created by the test. The listed reference/playbook.md is absent from this catalog copy.

Core Patterns

Basic Test with Groups

package tests;

import org.testng.annotations.*;
import org.testng.Assert;

public class LoginTest {
    @BeforeMethod
    public void setUp() { /* setup */ }

    @Test(groups = "smoke")
    public void testLoginSuccess() {
        Assert.assertTrue(loginService.login("[email protected]", "password123"));
    }

    @Test(groups = "regression", dependsOnMethods = "testLoginSuccess")
    public void testAccessDashboard() {
        Assert.assertNotNull(dashboard.getContent());
    }

    @Test(expectedExceptions = AuthenticationException.class)
    public void testLoginInvalidPassword() {
        loginService.login("[email protected]", "wrong");
    }

    @AfterMethod
    public void tearDown() { /* cleanup */ }
}

Data Providers

@DataProvider(name = "loginData")
public Object[][] loginData() {
    return new Object[][] {
        {"[email protected]", "admin123", true},
        {"[email protected]", "password", true},
        {"[email protected]", "wrong", false},
    };
}

@Test(dataProvider = "loginData")
public void testLogin(String email, String password, boolean expected) {
    Assert.assertEquals(loginService.login(email, password), expected);
}

TestNG XML Suite

<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "https://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">
<suite name="Regression" parallel="tests" thread-count="5">
  <test name="Smoke">
    <groups><run><include name="smoke"/></run></groups>
    <classes><class name="tests.LoginTest"/></classes>
  </test>
  <test name="Full">
    <groups><run><include name="regression"/><exclude name="flaky"/></run></groups>
    <packages><package name="tests.*"/></packages>
  </test>
</suite>

Parallel Execution

<suite parallel="methods" thread-count="5">   <!-- Method level -->
<suite parallel="classes" thread-count="5">    <!-- Class level -->
<suite parallel="tests" thread-count="5">      <!-- Test level -->

Soft Assertions

SoftAssert soft = new SoftAssert();
soft.assertEquals(user.getName(), "Alice");
soft.assertEquals(user.getAge(), 25);
soft.assertTrue(user.isActive());
soft.assertAll();  // Reports all failures at once

Listeners

public class TestListener implements ITestListener {
    @Override public void onTestFailure(ITestResult result) {
        System.out.println("Failed: " + result.getName());
        // Take screenshot, log, etc.
    }
}

@Listeners(TestListener.class)
public class LoginTest { /* ... */ }

Lifecycle Annotations

@BeforeSuite → @BeforeTest → @BeforeClass → @BeforeMethod → @Test → @AfterMethod → @AfterClass → @AfterTest → @AfterSuite

Anti-Patterns

| Bad | Good | Why |

|-----|------|-----|

| dependsOnMethods everywhere | Independent tests | Cascading failures |

| No groups | @Test(groups = "smoke") | Can't run subsets |

| Hard-coded test data | @DataProvider | Reusable |

| Priority ordering | Independent tests | Fragile |

Quick Reference

| Task | Command |

|------|---------|

| Run suite | mvn test -DsuiteXmlFile=testng.xml |

| Run group | mvn test -Dgroups=smoke |

| Run class | mvn test -Dtest=LoginTest |

| Reports | test-output/index.html |

Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches its upstream source and local project context.
• Verify commands, generated code, dependencies, credentials, and external service behavior before applying changes.
• Do not treat examples as a substitute for environment-specific tests, security review, or user approval for destructive or costly actions.
