How to exclude class in TestNG?

Question

Is this possible to exclude classes in testng.xml?

I tried with

Answer 1

Add (groups = { "anyName"}) right after tests you don't want to run, so it will be look like:

 @Test(groups = { "group1"})
public void methodTestName(){..
}

And than in your xml file add just after test name="..."

Methods with (groups = { "group1"}) wont be runned. This way works for me. Remember that you can't exclude Class, only package, methods and runs. Good luck
