TestNG - 尝试运行 XML 文件时出现“无法解析套件”错误

Question

I am developing a test automation project using: IntelliJ, Maven, TestNG and Selenium Webdriver. The problem is that I am unable to run XML suite files. Right-clicking on such file gives me the option to run them but it fails with error: Unable to parse suite: InputStream cannot be null

There is no more info provided. TestNG plugin is installed and active. Run Configuration has TestNG option.

Here is the XML file that I am trying to run:

<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "https://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">

<suite name="All Test Suite" verbose="1">
    <parameter name="environment" value="chrome"/>
    <parameter name="remoteRun" value="false"/>

    <test name="Regression12">
        <classes>
            <class name="tests.SampleTest"/>
        </classes>
    </test>
</suite>

I was looking for an answer online but there is not much and none of the solutions work in my case. I was trying to change the location of the XML files but I didn't change anything.

Thanks for the help and please tell me if I should provide some more info.

IntelliJ version is 2020.3.2 - no updates for IDE or plugins are available so everything is up to date. I'm running it on Windows 10.

Update: Here is the stacktrace from IntelliJ after running an XML file. There is one error regarding "SLF4J" dependency (logging) but I don't think it's related to my problem.

Answer 1

<tl/dr>: Remove the custom parameters/ properties file from the Run configration in IntelliJ and add all needed parameters in the XML file.

For me the problem was, that I have a custom default TestNG configuration with some parameters preconfigured. This seems not to work with TestNG XML files.

Props: the comment of Gafi give me the final tip.
