<br>
One of attributes <tt>classpath</tt>, <tt>classpathref</tt> or nested <tt>
&lt;classpath&gt;</tt> must be used for providing the tests classpath.
<p>One of the attributes <tt>xmlfilesetref</tt>, <tt>classfilesetref</tt> or
nested <tt>&lt;xmlfileset&gt;</tt>, respectively <tt>&lt;classfileset&gt;</tt> must be used
for providing the tests. </p>
<h3>TestNG modes</h3>
<p>The TestNG mode gets applied when tests are passed to TestNG using <tt>classfilesetref</tt>, <tt>methods</tt>
or nested <tt>&lt;classfileset&gt;</tt> and tells TestNG what kind of
tests it should look for and run:
<ul>
<li><tt>"testng"</tt>: find and run TestNG tests.
<li><tt>"junit"</tt>: find and run JUnit tests.
<li><tt>"mixed"</tt>: run both TestNG and JUnit tests.
</ul>
<p><em>Note</em>: <tt>"junit"</tt> and <tt>"mixed"</tt> modes require the JUnit jar file on the classpath.</p>
<h3><a name="nested">Nested Elements</a></h3>
<h4>classpath</h4>
<p>The <tt>&lt;testng&gt;</tt> task supports a nested <tt>&lt;classpath&gt;</tt> element
that represents a <em>PATH</em>-like structure. </p>
<h4>bootclasspath</h4>
<p>The location of bootstrap class files can be specified using this <em>
PATH-like</em> structure - will be ignored if <tt>fork </tt>is not set. </p>
<h4>xmlfileset</h4>
<p>The suite definitions (<tt>testng.xml</tt>) can be passed to the task with a
<tt><a href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/Types/fileset.html">FileSet</a></tt>
structure. </p>
<h4>classfileset</h4>
<p>TestNG can also run directly on classes, also supplied with a <tt>
<a href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/Types/fileset.html">FileSet</a></tt>
structure.</p>
<h4>jvmarg</h4>
<p>Additional parameters may be passed to the new VM via nested <tt>&lt;jvmarg&gt;</tt>
elements. For example: </p>
<pre class="brush: xml">
&lt;testng&gt;
&lt;jvmarg value="-Djava.compiler=NONE" /&gt;
&lt;!-- ... --&gt;
&lt;/testng&gt;
</pre>
<h4>sysproperty</h4>
<p>Use nested <tt>&lt;sysproperty&gt;</tt> elements to specify system properties
required by the class. These properties will be made available to the virtual
machine during the execution of the test. The attributes for this element are
the same as for <em>environment variables</em>:</p>
<pre class="brush: xml">
&lt;testng&gt;
&lt;sysproperty key="basedir" value="${basedir}"/&gt;
&lt;!-- ... --&gt;
&lt;/testng&gt;
</pre>
<p>will run the test and make the <code>basedir</code> property
available to the test.</p>
<h4>propertyset</h4>
<p>You may also use a nested <tt>&lt;propertyset&gt;</tt> element to specify a set of system properties that are defined
outside of the TestNG ant task. This allows for more flexible definitions of system properties, for instance selecting
all properties with a specific prefix or matching a regex. See the
<a href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/Types/propertyset.html">PropertySet page</a> in the
<a href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/">Ant manual</a> for full details. Here's a simple example:</p>
<pre class="brush: xml">
&lt;property name="myprop1" value="value 1"/&gt;
&lt;property name="myprop2" value="value 2"/>
&lt;propertyset id="propset1"&gt;
&lt;propertyref name="myprop1"/&gt;
&lt;propertyref name="myprop2"/&gt;
&lt;/propertyset&gt;
&lt;testng outputdir="${testng.report.dir}" classpathref="run.cp"&gt;
&lt;xmlfileset dir="${test15.dir}" includes="testng-single3.xml"/&gt;
&lt;propertyset refid="propset1"/&gt;
&lt;/testng&gt;
</pre>
<p>In this case, the system properties named "myprop1" and "myprop2" are passed along to the TestNG process.</p>
<h4>reporter</h4>
<p>An inner <tt>&lt;reporter&gt;</tt> element is an alternative way to inject a
custom report listener allowing the user to set custom properties in order to fine-tune
the behavior of the reporter at run-time.
<br>
The element has one <tt>classname</tt> attribute which is mandatory, indicating
the class of the custom listener. In order to set the properties of the reporter, the
<tt>&lt;reporter&gt;</tt> element can contain several nested <tt>&lt;property&gt;</tt>
elements which will provide the <tt>name</tt> and <tt>value</tt> attributes as seen below:
</p>
<pre class="brush: xml">
&lt;testng ...&gt;
...
&lt;reporter classname="com.test.MyReporter"&gt;
&lt;property name="methodFilter" value="*insert*"/&gt;
&lt;property name="enableFiltering" value="true"/&gt;
&lt;/reporter&gt;
...
&lt;/testng&gt;
</pre>
<pre class="brush: java">
public class MyReporter {
public String getMethodFilter() {...}
public void setMethodFilter(String methodFilter) {...}
public boolean isEnableFiltering() {...}
public void setEnableFiltering(boolean enableFiltering) {...}
...
}
</pre>
You have to consider though that for the moment only a limited set of property types are supported:
<tt>String, int, boolean, byte, char, double, float, long, short</tt>.
<h4>env</h4>
<p>It is possible to specify environment variables to pass to the TestNG forked
virtual machine via nested <tt>&lt;env&gt;</tt> elements. For a description of the <tt>
&lt;env&gt;</tt> element's attributes, see the description in the <em>
<a href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/exec.html">exec</a></em> task.</p>
<h3>Examples</h3>
<h4>Suite xml</h4>
<pre class="brush: text">
&lt;testng classpathref="run.cp"
outputDir="${testng.report.dir}"
sourcedir="${test.src.dir}"
haltOnfailure="true"&gt;
&lt;xmlfileset dir="${test14.dir}" includes="testng.xml"/&gt;
&lt;/testng&gt;
</pre>
<h4>Class FileSet</h4>
<pre class="brush: xml">
&lt;testng classpathref="run.cp"
outputDir="${testng.report.dir}"
haltOnFailure="true" verbose="2"&gt;
&lt;classfileset dir="${test.build.dir}" includes="**/*.class" /&gt;
&lt;/testng&gt;
