TestNG by default disables loading DTD from unsecure Urls

Question

I\'m using testng maven and selenium to run my tests, currently I have the following testng.xml file

Looks like the problem is with the &listeners and &class

Answer 1

Yes, that's the default behavior of TestNG and I had introduced it through that pull request to fix the bug https://github.com/cbeust/testng/issues/2022

For more information on editing configurations, please refer to the official documentation here

Added screenshot for easy to find in Intellij

Argument value

-ea -Dtestng.dtd.http=true

If the above does not work do at template level, this will fix it, which is

Run--> Edit configuration --> template --> testng
