Some TestNG Annotations with Attributes

In TestNg have so many attribute with the annotation we will try to learn some of them, here almost everything with example.......

enabled =Boolean value

If we set it false then method will not execute means it is not prepared for test or method not to be tested.
     
Example Code:
 
@Test(enabled = false)
    public void testMethod() {
        System.out.println("TestMethod()");
    }
@Test
    public void anotherTestMethod() {
        System.out.println("AnotherTestMethod()");
    }

timeOut  = Integer value

It is required if we set the value for time to executed if it required more time than defined then test failed elase passed.
Example Code:
    
@Test(timeOut = 1)
    public void testMethod() throws InterruptedException {
        Thread.sleep(2000);
        System.out.println("TestMethod()");
    }
@Test
    public void anotherTestMethod() {
        System.out.println("AnotherTestMethod()");
    }

groups ={"GroupName1","GroupName2",.......}

Groups attribute is used to grouping the methods.

Example Code:

@Test(groups = {"group2"})
    public void testMethod() {
        System.out.println("TestMethod() From Group1");
    }
@Test(groups = {"group1","group2"})
    public void anotherTestMethod() {
        System.out.println("AnotherTestMethod()From Group1 and Group2");
    }

 dependsOnGroups={"GroupName1","GroupName2" ,.....}

It's used to imply the dependency of a another group(groups). If all the methods of this group(groups) is not passed then it is skipped.

Example Code:

    /*
     * This @Test have timeout limit 1 Sec
     * but it required 2 Sec becausing using of this
     * Thread.sleep(2000);
     * So it will be failed due to timeOut
     */

    @Test(groups = {"group1"}, timeOut = 1)
    public void testMethod() throws InterruptedException {
        Thread.sleep(2000);
        System.out.println("TestMethod() From Group1");
    }
   
 /*
     * This @Test dependes on "group1"
     * and "group1" failed due to timed-out
     * So This test should be Skipped though
     * "group2" Passed.
     */

    @Test(dependsOnGroups = {"group1", "group2"})
    public void anotherTestMethod() {
        System.out.println("AnotherTestMethod()From Group1 and Group2");
    }

    @Test(groups = {"group2"})
    public void testMethodFromGP2() {
        System.out.println("TestMethod() From Group2");
    }

dependsOnMethods = {"methodName1","methodName2",........}

It's used to imply the dependency of a another method(methods). If all the method/methods is not passed then it is skipped.

Example Code:
 
     /*
     * This @Test have timeOut limit 1 Sec
     * but it required 2 Sec becausing using of this
     * Thread.sleep(2000);
     * So it will be failed due to timeOut
     */
    @Test(timeOut = 1)
    public void testMethod() throws InterruptedException {
        Thread.sleep(2000);
        System.out.println("TestMethod() From Group1");
    }
    /*
     * This @Test dependes on "testMethod"
     * and "testMethod" failed due to timed-out
     * So This test should be Skipped though
     * "testMethodFromGP2" Passed.
     */

    @Test(dependsOnMethods = {"testMethod", "testMethodFromGP2"})
    public void anotherTestMethod() {
        System.out.println("AnotherTestMethod()From Group1 and Group2");
    }

    @Test
    public void testMethodFromGP2() {
        System.out.println("TestMethod() From Group2");
    }

priority =Integer value

It is used to maintain the sequence means which method we want to execute first we set low value (Set 0).
One thing keep in mind if a method depends on a lower priority method or depends on a group, that may hold lower priority methods then this method or methods should be run first then higher priority method.

Example Code:   

    /*
     * This Method should be executed
     * brfore anotherTestMethod()though
     * testMethod()have lower priority
     * than it but anotherTestMethod()
     * depends on testMethod()
     */

    @Test(priority = 2)
    public void testMethod() throws InterruptedException {
        Thread.sleep(2000);
        System.out.println("TestMethod() From Group1");
    }
    
    /*
     * Though it have the Higher Priority
     * than "testMethod()" but it dependes
     * on this lower priority method it
     * should be executed after "testMethod()"
     */

    @Test(dependsOnMethods = {"testMethod"},priority = 1)
    public void anotherTestMethod() {
        System.out.println("AnotherTestMethod()From Group1 and Group2");
    }

  /*
   * This TestMethod will execute First
   * Because it have the Highest Priority
   */
 
    @Test(priority = 0)
    public void testMethodFromGP2() {
        System.out.println("TestMethod() From Group2");
    }

alwaysRun = Boolean value

If it is set then it should be run in any condition it does not depends on any group or methods.

Example Code:
    /*
     * This @Test have timeout limit 1 Sec
     * but it required 2 Sec becausing using of this
     * Thread.sleep(2000);
     * So it will be failed due to timeOut
     */

    @Test(timeOut = 1)
    public void testMethod() throws InterruptedException {
        Thread.sleep(2000);
        System.out.println("TestMethod() From Group1");
    }
   
    /*
     * This @Test dependes on "testMethod"
     * and "testMethod" failed due to timed-out
     * So This test should be Skipped but we
     * set alwaysRun = true so it should be executed

    @Test(dependsOnMethods = {"testMethod"},alwaysRun = true)
    public void anotherTestMethod() {
        System.out.println("AnotherTestMethod()From Group1 and Group2");
