How to get class name at run time in testng

Question

I am having @BeforeClass annotated method in BaseClass. I am trying to get the name of current execution class(Child class to BaseClass) at runtime .

Do we have any mechanism to get the class name from its Baseclass at runtime?

I am able to get the class name when I am trying to run single class, but facing issue while running multiple classes. Getting same class name for all the classes in the report.

Answer 1

You can refer this link How can I get the classname at runtime, but only the classname?

If you want to get super class name you can use getSuperClass().

Answer 2

You can make use of TestNg ITestContext object here:

Class x = ctx.getSuite().getAllMethods().listIterator.next.getRealClass();
//Then just take it as a String

String name = x.getName().substring(x.getName().lastIndexOf(“.”)+1);

Answer 3

public String getClassName(ITestContext iTestContext) {

    return iTestContext.getCurrentXmlTest().getClasses().stream()
               .findFirst().get().getName();
}

Or you could retrieve the class itself by:

iTestContext.getAllTestMethods()[0].getInstance().getClass();
