How to execute JUnit and TestNG tests in same project using maven-surefire-plugin?

Question

Right now I have both type of tests but when I say \"mvn test\" it only executes TestNG tests and not Junit. I want to execute both one after another. Any Idea ?

Answer 1

for Junit this solved my problem

<plugin>
   <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
   <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
   <version>2.19.1</version>
   <dependencies>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.surefire</groupId>
    <artifactId>surefire-junit47</artifactId>
    <version>2.19.1</version>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>

Answer 2

Official way with selecting providers.

You can also specify multiple providers as dependencies, and they will all be run and produce a common report. This may be especially handy with external providers, since there are few use-cases for combining the included providers.

<plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.18.1</version>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.surefire</groupId>
            <artifactId>surefire-junit47</artifactId>
            <version>2.18.1</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.surefire</groupId>
            <artifactId>surefire-testng</artifactId>
            <version>2.18.1</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</plugin>

Current Link for this in the maven-surefire-plugin examples. Search for "Running TestNG and JUnit Tests".

You will want to configure the testng provider to ignore the junit tests like so:

<plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.18.1</version>
    <configuration>        
    <properties>
        <property>
            <name>junit</name>
            <value>false</value>
         </property>
    </properties>        
    </configuration>
    [...providers as dependecies, see above...]
</plugin>

Than just run: mvn test -Pjunit-tests (for run test based on junit) or mvn test -PtestNG-tests (for TestNG test based).

Answer 4

if you just specify testng provider, it will run both junit tests and testng tests all just once.
so there is no restriction on naming the tests.

plugin versions:
surefire-plugin 2.16 (junit47 and testng providers both version set to 2.16)
testng dependency 6.8.7
junit dependency 4.7

Answer 5

I have a better solution.

The idea is to create two executions of the maven-surefire-plugin, one for JUnit, one for TestNG. You can disable one of TestNG or JUnit per execution by specifying nonexisting junitArtifactName or testNGArtifactName:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <phase>test</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>test</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration> 
                <testNGArtifactName>none:none</testNGArtifactName>
            </configuration>
        </execution>
        <execution>
            <id>test-testng</id>
            <phase>test</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>test</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration> 
                <junitArtifactName>none:none</junitArtifactName>
            </configuration>
        </execution>
    </executions>
</plugin>

Answer 6

There is another wayout for this. You could ask TestNG to run Junit test cases as well. Below is the sample testng.xml to run all test cases

<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd" >
 
<suite name="TestAll">
 
	<test name="junitTestCases" junit="true">
		<packages>
			<package name="com.test.*" />
			
		</packages>
	</test>
 
 <test name="testNGTestCases" >
		<packages>
			<package name="com.test.*" />
			
		</packages>
	</test>
</suite>
