Run a specific TestNG XML test suite with Gradle from command line?

Question

I am using Gradle with TestNG. I have this build.gradle:

useTestNG() {
        useDefaultListeners = true
        suites \"src/test/resources/tests1.xml\"
               


        

Answer 1

you can use project properties to add/change/... different suites. In you example you are probably running

gradlew test

which run both suites. If you modify test task in your build.gradle

def suite1 = project.hasProperty("suite1")
def suite2 = project.hasProperty("suite2")

test {
    useTestNG() {
        dependsOn cleanTest
        useDefaultListeners = true

        if(suite1) {
            suites "src/test/resources/simpleSuite.xml"
        }

        if(suite2) {
            suites "src/test/resources/advancedSuite.xml"
        }
    }
}

you can choose suite in this way

gradlew test -Psuite1
gradlew test -Psuite2
gradlew test -Psuite1 -Psuite2
