Introduction to TestNG, the next generation testing framework for developers

No one will argue that JUnit has positively affected the quality of thousands of Java applications around the world. JUnit’s simplicity and ease of use ushered in a whole new era of code quality; however, as many developers have found, its simplicity has also limited its use. TestNG was designed from the ground up to overcome some of JUnit’s limitations; moreover, TestNG’s features make it a great tool to complement your JUnit tests.

In this session we’ll learn about TestNG’s flexible fixture model, its test categorization capability, dependent methods, and TestNG’s powerful parametric testing facility. We’ll also see how both TestNG and JUnit can play together in a build process.
