How To Ignore TestNG Test | TestNG Tutorial

At times we may face some situations where our code is not ready and the test cases written to test a particular method may fail. In such cases, we could use TestNG annotation @Test(enabled = false). This TestNG annotation allows us to ignore testng test.

If a test method is annotated with @Test(enabled = false), then the test case that is not ready to test is ignored.

Now, let’s see how to ignore TestNG test using a script.

Script – Test Case 1:

package softwareTestingMaterial;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class TestCase1 {
	@Test
	public void printClass(){
		System.out.println("This is Test Case 1");
	}
}

Script – Test Case 2: I would like to ignore this test from the test execution

package softwareTestingMaterial;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class TestCase2 {
	@Test (enabled=false)
	public void printClass2(){
		System.out.println("This is Test Case 2");
	}
}

testNg.xml file:

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

<suite name="softwaretestingmaterial">
	<test name="testngTest">
		<classes>
			<class name="softwareTestingMaterial.TestCase1" />
			<class name="softwareTestingMaterial.TestCase2" />
		</classes>
	</test>
</suite>
