如何从批处理为maven项目运行testng .xml文件

Question

I have created a maven project and within I have several testng.xml files for my different suites.

If I run my .xml files from within my IDE (Intelij) everything goes fine

But what I want to do is create a batch file that run these .xml for me so I can run it without my IDE.

I've seen a solution when you have a lib folder etc like this : https://www.seleniumeasy.com/testng-tutorials/how-to-run-testng-xml-via-batch-file-example

But it doesn't works for me since I have a maven project so no lib or bin folder.

I've also tried this

SET SUITE_LOCATION=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\IdeaProjects\Test_Automation\src\main\java\MyApp\Scenarios\CustomStuff
SET CLASSPATH=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\.m2\repository\org\testng\testng\6.9.10\testng-6.9.10.jar;
java org.testng.TestNG %SUITE_LOCATION%\testng.xml

or

java -cp org.testng.TestNG %SUITE_LOCATION%\testng.xml

But It doesn't work. I also tried to add the .class files in the classpath but didn't work either.

Any idea on how to run it ?

Thank you!

UPDATE

I'm getting close to something I think this is the last command I tried :

java -classpath C:\Users\%USERNAME%\.m2\repository\org\testng\testng\6.9.10\testng-6.9.10.jar;C:\Users\%USERNAME%\.m2\repository\com\beust\jcommander\1.48\jcommander-1.48.jar;%CLASSPATH% org.testng.TestNG -d test-outputs mytestsuite.xml

Error was :

[TestNG] [ERROR] Cannot find class in classpath: "myApp.Scenarios.Scenario1"

this is my xml file :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">
<suite name="AndroidSuite" parallel="tests" thread-count="1">
<test name="SamsungS6-Scenario1">
    <parameter name="deviceUDID"  value="04157df40862d02f"/>
    <classes>
        <class name="myApp.Scenarios.Scenario1"/>
    </classes>
</test>

If you are using maven, run a testsuite like this :

mvn clean test -DsuiteXmlFile=src/test/resources/api/TestngSuite.xml

Add this command to a batch file and execute it.

If you are using maven project and java 8, then you need to do several steps before you run your testng xml file from batch file:

1. In your pom xml file, you need add a code that will force maven to use 1.8 for the compiler because the default one is 1.5

    <properties> <maven.compiler.source>1.8</maven.compiler.source> <maven.compiler.target>1.8</maven.compiler.target> </properties> 

2. In your pom xml file, you need to add the code for the maven-surefire-plugin:

    <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.19.1</version> <configuration> <suiteXmlFiles> <suiteXmlFile>${suiteXmlFile}</suiteXmlFile> </suiteXmlFiles> <testFailureIgnore>true</testFailureIgnore> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> 

3. Save your pom.xml file and right click on your maven project and select maven->update project and check the check box for "force update of snapshots/releases" and click ok

4. Now create a batch file with an extension bat and put this sample code in it and change it according to your project.

   set projectLocation=C:\\locationOfYourProject\\locationOfYourTestNGXmlFile

   cd %projectLocation%

   mvn clean test -DsuiteXmlFile=yourXMLFileCanBeAnyName.xml

Even after including the jcommander and the testng jar in the class path while executing we would be required to reach to a folder from where the main package of the application can be reached

1. For example if the *Test.java files are present in com.test.app package then the folder structure for the same with respect to the Project will be src/test/java/com/test/app

so on executing

javac -cp ".:/home/manish/.m2/repository/org/testng/testng/6.9.8/testng-6.9.8.jar:/home/manish/.m2/repository/com/beust/jcommander/1.48/jcommander-1.48.jar" $(find -name *.java)

will compile the java files in their respective package

user will have to go to the test/java folder (if user is in project root folder)

cd src/test/java
javac -cp ".:/home/manish/.m2/repository/org/testng/testng/6.9.8/testng-6.9.8.jar:/home/manish/.m2/repository/com/beust/jcommander/1.48/jcommander-1.48.jar" org.testng.TestNg testng.xml_file_path_relative_to_current_location

2. If the java files are compiled using the mvn compiler:testCompile

then the user will have to go to the target/test-classes folder

cd target/test-classes 
javac -cp ".:/home/manish/.m2/repository/org/testng/testng/6.9.8/testng-6.9.8.jar:/home/manish/.m2/repository/com/beust/jcommander/1.48/jcommander-1.48.jar" org.testng.TestNg testng.xml_file_path_relative_to_current_location

both the above ways are executing the tests

Answer 4

java -classpath C:\\Users\\%USERNAME%.m2\\repository\\org\\testng\\testng\\6.9.10\\testng-6.9.10.jar;C:\\Users\\%USERNAME%.m2\\repository\\com\\beust\\jcommander\\1.48\\jcommander-1.48.jar;%CLASSPATH% org.testng.TestNG -d test-outputs mytestsuite.xml

In this, your jar file is missing and hence the class not found exception.

java -classpath C:\\Users\\%USERNAME%.m2\\repository\\org\\testng\\testng\\6.9.10\\testng-6.9.10.jar;C:\\Users\\%USERNAME%.m2\\repository\\com\\beust\\jcommander\\1.48\\jcommander-1.48.jar;%CLASSPATH%; org.testng.TestNG -d test-outputs mytestsuite.xml
