TestNG has a feature to include and exclude the test methods, classes and packages using include and exclude tag in .xml

To include some test methods of a class instead of all test methods, use include tag with that particular test method name in .xml :

<include name="test1"></include>

And for exclusion of test method exclude tag is used in .xml or set value false for attribute enabled of test method in the testNG class :

<exclude name="test1"></exclude>

OR

@Test(enabled = false) public void test2() {

}

​

Here's an example of it :

• Create a testNG class as Include_ExcludeExample.

• Create a .xml file.

package testNGexamples;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class Include_ExcludeExample {

@Test public void test1() { System.out.println("test1 is executed "); }

@Test public void test2() { System.out.println("test2 is executed "); } }

​

.xml file for include :

<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd"> <suite name="Test-Suite"> <test name="Group Test"> <classes> <class name="testNGexamples.Include_ExcludeExample"> <methods> <include name="test1"></include> </methods> </class> </classes> </test> </suite>

​

Output :

[RemoteTestNG] detected TestNG version 7.4.0 test1 is executed

=============================================== Test-Suite Total tests run: 1, Passes: 1, Failures: 0, Skips: 0 ===============================================

​

​

.xml file for exclude :

<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd"> <suite name="Test-Suite"> <test name="Group Test"> <classes> <class name="testNGexamples.Include_ExcludeExample"> <methods> <exclude name="test1"></exclude> </methods> </class> </classes> </test> </suite>

​

Output :

[RemoteTestNG] detected TestNG version 7.4.0 test2 is executed

=============================================== Test-Suite Total tests run: 1, Passes: 1, Failures: 0, Skips: 0 ===============================================

​

TestNG example to disable a test :

package testNGexamples;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class EnabledAttributeOfTest {

@Test public void test1() { System.out.println("test1 is executed "); }

​

// To disable a test @Test(enabled = false) public void test2() { System.out.println("test2 is executed "); } }

Output :

[RemoteTestNG] detected TestNG version 7.4.0 test1 is executed PASSED: test1

=============================================== Default test Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Skips: 0 ===============================================

=============================================== Default suite Total tests run: 1, Passes: 1, Failures: 0, Skips: 0 ===============================================
