| Announcing TestNG 2.3 |
| |
| The TestNG team is happy to announce the availability of TestNG 2.3. |
| |
| The version is available at http://beust.com/testng as well as the new documentation, which has been considerably improved (highlighted code snippets, detailed DTD, ant task and description of all the new features). |
| |
| What's new: |
| |
| * beforeSuite, afterSuite, beforeTest, afterTest |
| * Revamped ant task with haltonfailure and other helpful flags |
| * Better stack traces and improved level control for verbosity |
| * Better syntax for including and excluding methods in testng.xml |
| * Test classes can be invoked on the command line |
| * ... and many bug fixes. |
| |
| For Eclipse users, a new version (1.1.1) of the Eclipse plug-in that includes this new TestNG version is available on the remote update site or for direct download. |
| |
| Also, TestNG has joined OpenSymphony (big thanks to Patrick and Hani for setting this up). As a consequence of this move, there is now a TestNG users forum as well as a Wiki and JIRA for issue tracking. |
| |
| The users mailing-list has been moved to Google Groups and is connected to the forum, so you only need to subscribe to one. |
| |
| Try it and let us know what you think! |

| === |
| |
| I am happy to announce the availability of TestNG 2.1 (http://beust.com/testng). |
| |
| TestNG is a testing framework inspired from JUnit and NUnit but introducing some new functionalities that make it more powerful and easier to use, such as: |
| |
| * JSR 175 Annotations (JDK 1.4 is also supported with JavaDoc annotations). |
| * Flexible test configuration. |
| * Default JDK functions for runtime and logging (no dependencies). |
| * Powerful execution model (no more TestSuite). |
| * Supports dependent methods. |
| |
| Some of the new features in this version include: |
| |
| * invocationCount and successPercentage, which I described in a previous entry (http://beust.com/weblog/archives/000236.html), and which allow you to invoke a test method a certain number of times while allowing some of these invocations to fail. If the number of failures is under a certain threshold, the test is still considered a success. |
| |
| * timeOut is now applicable to all test methods. Whether you are running your tests in parallel or not, you can specify a time-out for your test method and if it fails to complete within the given amount of time, TestNG will mark it as a failure. |
| |
| * dependsOnMethods was the most requested feature. You can now specify dependencies on a method-based basis (no need to specify a group if your dependency graph is simple). You can even mix dependsOnMethods and dependsOnGroups. |
| |
| * ... and of course, numerous bug fixes and other additions. |
| |
| A special thanks to Alexandru Popescu who has pulled all-nighters to make this release happen! |
| |
| We have an exciting list of new features lined up for our next version, among which a plug-in API, but in the meantime, enjoy TestNG 2.1. |
