Cross Browser testing in TestNG with selected test

Question

Is it possible to run cross browser testing from TestNG with selected test cases on selected browser? For example. 1 - 5 test cases on IE and 6-10 on chrome etc.

Thanks, Sudhakar

Answer 1

Yes, this is possible Let me show you how i have done this

1. Into TestNG suite file i will give browser name as parameter

2. Now add the code to fetch browser name in beforeTest method

   @BeforeTest(alwaysRun = true)
   public void fetchSuiteConfiguration(ITestContext testContext) {
   targetBrowser=testContext.getCurrentXmlTest().getParameter("selenium.browser");}
   

3. Now initialize browser into beforeMethod

   @BeforeMethod(alwaysRun = true)
   public void setUp(Method method, ITestContext testContext)  {
   
   if (targetBrowser == null || targetBrowser.contains("firefox")) {
       /*initialize firefox driver here*/
   } else if (targetBrowser.contains("ie")) {
    /*initialize ie driver here*/
   } else if (targetBrowser.contains("opera")) {
    /*initialize opera driver here*/
   } else if (targetBrowser.contains("chrome")) {
    /*initialize Chrome driver here*/
   
   
   } 
   
   driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
   driver.get(url);
   
   driver.manage().window().maximize();
   
   }
