In TestNG, you’ll define multiple test cases during a single class whereas, in Java, you’ll define just one test during a single class within the main() method. In Java, if you would like to make another test, then you would like to make another java file and define the test within the main() method.

Instead of creating test cases in several classes, we recommend you to use TestNG framework that permits you to make multiple test cases during a single class.

You can create multiple test cases with the assistance of @Test annotation.

Let’s understand through an example.

public class test

{

@Test

public void test1() // First test suit .

{

System.out.println("test1");

}

@Test

public void test2() // Second test suit .

{

System.out.println("test2");

}}

The above code consists of a category test. the category test consists of two test cases, i.e., test1() and test2(). you’ll differentiate the test cases by considering the sequence of test cases. within the above code, the test suit test2() is written within the second @Test annotation, so this test suit are going to be considered because the second case.

Note: you’ll trigger all the test cases from one file referred to as xml file. Xml file is that the heart of TestNG framework.

How to create a xml file

Right click on the project. Move your cursor down, and you’ll see TestNG then click on the Convert to TestNG.

The below screen shows the preview of the xml file. Click on subsequent button.

The testing.xml file is shown below:

In the above ASCII text file of xml file, suite is at the upper hierarchy in TestNG. Inside the , you’ve got to define the test name folder. This test name folder is that the name of the folder. for instance , during a loan company, there are three differing types of modules like consumer loan , home equity credit and automobile loan , and every module contain its own test cases. of these test cases are defined within the test name folder.

Now we’ll create the module of private loan.

Step 1: We first create two java files and both the files contain test cases.

test1.java

package day1;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class module1
{
@Test
public void test1()
{
System.out.println("Hello tecklearn!!");
}

@Test
public void test2()
{
System.out.println("JTP Travels");
}
}

test2.java

package day1;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class module2
{
@Test
public void test3()
{
System.out.println("hindi100.com");
}
}

Step 2: Now we’ll create the xml file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">
<!-- Test -->
<!-- Suite -->

In the above XML file, we’ve created the suite “loan_department“. we’ve created the module “Personal loan” inside the suite and within this module, we’ve created the test cases defined within the classes day1.module1 and day1.module2, where day1 is that the package name and module1 and module2, are the classes.

Step 3: during this step, we’ll run the test cases. Now we don’t got to run the java files individually. we’ve to run the XML file which can automatically execute all the test cases as we’ve configured all the category files inside the XML file that are containing test cases.

Right click on the testng.xml file then move right down to the Run As then click on the1 TestNG Suite.

In the above output, we observe that each one the test cases run successfully with none failure.
