Question

How to execute Testng and Maven without testng.xml file using only pom.xml file

Answer 1

No , it wouldn't be possible to execute Testng based Test Suite to be executed only through Maven ie using only pom.xml without using testng.xml .

You need to configure Maven ie pom.xml with the desired testng.xml file as a mandatory configuration as follows:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.17</version>
    <configuration>
        <suiteXmlFiles>
            <suiteXmlFile>${suiteXmlFile}</suiteXmlFile>
        </suiteXmlFiles>
    </configuration>
</plugin>
