@BeforeTest
|
@BeforeMethod
|
To execute a set-up method before any of the test methods
included in the
< test > tag in the testng.xml file. |
To execute a set-up method before any of the test methods
annotated as
@Test. |
Example Testng.xml :
<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE suite
SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">
<suite name="Suite"
parallel="none">
<test name="test">
<classes>
<class name=".BeforetestandBeforemethod">
<methods>
<include name="toBeforeTest"></include>
<include name="toBeforeMethod"></include>
</methods>
</class>
</classes>
</test>
<methods>
</suite> <!-- Suite
-->
|
Example Java code such as:
import
org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import
org.testng.annotations.BeforeTest;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class
BeforetestandBeforemethod {
@BeforeTest
public void beforeTest() {
System.out.println("@BeforeTest");
}
@BeforeMethod
public void beforemethod(){
System.out.print("@BeforeMethod");
}
public void helper() {
System.out.println("Flow");
}
@Test
public void toBeforeMethod() {
helper();
System.out.println("BeforeMethod");
}
@Test
public void toBeforeTest() {
helper();
System.out.println("BeforeTest");
}
}
|
Execute code by TestNG, then the Output would be:
When run <include name="toBeforeTest"></include>
Run <include name="toBeforeMethod"></include>
Not clear...
ReplyDeleteNice. TestNg could have used better names here.
ReplyDeleteyou are correct, it's a lot confusing.
Deletewhen will flow be printed then?

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteFor Clarification
@BeforeTest Will be called before any Test only..
@BeforeMethod will be called before every method
Note that, not every method in a file is Test, but every Test in a file is a method.
In the above case the helper() method is only a method not a Test. Whereas toBeforeTest() and toBeforeMethod() are Test, since they are preceded with "@Test" annotation.
@BeforeTest will be executed only for the blocks of toBeforeTest() and toBeforeMethod().
Whereas @BeforeMethod will be executed for all the methods of toBeforeTest(), toBeforeMethod() as well as the helper() method
Don't put absurd analysis
DeleteDon't put absurd analysis
DeleteAbhishek is absolutely correct, according to the output shown above.
ReplyDelete1) @BeforeTest is executed twice since there are 2 @Test.
2) @BeforeMethod is executed 5 times, since there are totally 5 methods.
Abhishek is explaining perfectly. You guys can try using the below example as well for better understanding
ReplyDeletepackage testNgTests;
import org.testng.annotations.*;
public class TestngAnnotations {
@BeforeClass
public void connectDb(){
System.out.println("Db connection is successfull");
}
@BeforeMethod
public void openBrowser(){
System.out.println("Browser opened");
}
@AfterMethod
public void closeBrowser(){
System.out.println("Browser Closed");
}
@Test
public void testChrome(){
System.out.println("Chrome Test is Successful");
}
@Test
public void testMozilla(){
System.out.println("Firefox Test is Successful");
}
public void noAnno(){
System.out.println("No Annotation method**************");
}
@Test
public void testIE(){
System.out.println("IE Test is Successful");
}
@AfterClass
public void closeDb(){
System.out.println("Db Connection is closed");
}
@AfterTest
public void aft(){
System.out.println("After Test is executed");
}
@BeforeTest
public void bft(){
System.out.println("Before Test is executed");
}
}

ReplyDelete@BeforeTest is used to do setup related to bunch of tests written inside the tag as the author has mentioned.
Consider below testng.xml
Please excuse the XML format, had to remove the delimiters as XML start and end tag made the whole code disappear in my earlier responses.
suite name="TestAccess"
@BeforeTest
test name="Test Login, refresh and Logout"
classes
class name="com.yogi.testng.example.Login"
class name="com.yogi.testng.example.Refresh"
class name="com.yogi.testng.example.Logout"
classes
test
@AfterTest
@BeforeTest
test name="Test Login and Logout"
classes
class name="com.yogi.testng.example.Login"
class name="com.yogi.testng.example.Logout"
classes
test
@AfterTest
suite
@AfterSuite
@BeforeSuite will run only once before TestAccess. We are clear on this.
@BeforeTest will run twice, once before each set of test.
@BeforeMethod will run before each @Test method in test classes.
@BeforeClass will run before "each" test class mentioned in the testng.xml.
Typical use of testng would be to setup the driver at landing page, then not having to go back to do login again in the series of tests mentioned inside the Tag.
great differentiation of @BeforeTest and @BeforeMethod examples are very helpful to understand referred below link also
