Question

Is there currently a way to disable TestNG test based on a condition

I know you can currently disable test as so in TestNG:

@Test(en         


        

Answer 1

I prefer this annotation based way for disable/skip some tests based on environment settings. Easy to maintain and not requires any special coding technique.

• Using the IInvokedMethodListener interface
• Create a custom anntotation e.g.: @SkipInHeadlessMode
• Throw SkipException

public class ConditionalSkipTestAnalyzer implements IInvokedMethodListener {
    protected static PropertiesHandler properties = new PropertiesHandler();

    @Override
    public void beforeInvocation(IInvokedMethod invokedMethod, ITestResult result) {
        Method method = result.getMethod().getConstructorOrMethod().getMethod();
        if (method == null) {
            return;
        }
        if (method.isAnnotationPresent(SkipInHeadlessMode.class)
                && properties.isHeadlessMode()) {
            throw new SkipException("These Tests shouldn't be run in HEADLESS mode!");
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void afterInvocation(IInvokedMethod iInvokedMethod, ITestResult iTestResult) {
        //Auto generated
    }
}
