TestNg's @BeforeTest on base class only happening once per fixture

Question

I\'m trying to use @BeforeTest to get code to ... run once before every test.

This is my code:

public class TestBase {
    @BeforeTest
    public voi

"BeforeTest" is only printed once, not twice. What am I doing wrong?

***Sorry. I haven't noticed that you is written @BeforeTest , but in your example @BeforeTest almost equals @BeforeClass , and better to use @BeforeClass , when you haven't anymore test classes.

@BeforeClass" should be declared in same class that your tests methods, not differently!

//Example

package test;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeClass;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class Tests {
private String bClass;
private String bMethod1;
private String bMethod2;

@BeforeClass
public void beforeClass() {
    bClass = "BeforeClass was executed once for this class";
}

@BeforeMethod
public void beforeMetodTest1() {
    bMethod1 = "It's before method for test1";
}

@Test
public void test1() {
    System.out.println(bClass);
    System.out.println(bMethod1);
}

@BeforeMethod
public void beforeMethodTest2() {
    bMethod2 = "It's before method for test2";
}

@Test
public void test2() {
    System.out.println(bClass);
    System.out.println(bMethod2);
}
}

@BeforeClass will executed once, before your all tests methods in this class. @BeforeMethod will executed before test method, before which it is written.

@BeforeClass may be only one in test class, in difference @BeforeMethod!(If it is some @BeforeClass, they are carried out by turns, but it not a correct composition of the test)

P.S. Sorry for my English :)
