Selenium WebDriver with Java - Basics to Advanced and Frameworks - Using Groups Functionality in TestNG

The video tutorial covers the use of annotations in TestNG, focusing on 'before class' and 'after class' annotations. It explains the order of test execution based on alphabetical order and how to exclude tests using testng XML. The tutorial also addresses client requirements for running specific test cases using groups and demonstrates how to implement these groups in TestNG for efficient test management.

What is the primary purpose of the 'before class' annotation in TestNG?

• To execute a method after each test method in a class

• To execute a method before each test method in a class

• To execute a method before any test methods in a class

• To execute a method after all test methods in a class

What is the significance of the 'after class' annotation in TestNG?

• It runs before all test methods in a class

• It runs before each test method

• It runs after all test methods in a class

• It runs after each test method

How does TestNG determine the order of test method execution?

• Based on the alphabetical order of method names

• Randomly

• Based on the order of declaration in the code

• Based on the length of method names

Why might a test method not appear in the TestNG output?

• It was commented out in the code

• It failed during execution

• It was excluded using an exclude tag in TestNG XML

• It was not included in the TestNG XML file

What might cause a test method to be excluded from execution in TestNG?

• It is not annotated with @Test

• It is excluded in the TestNG XML file

• It is not in the same package as the TestNG XML file

• It is not public

What is the purpose of using groups in TestNG?

• To change the order of test method execution

• To execute all test methods in parallel

• To categorize test methods for selective execution

• To exclude certain test methods from execution

How can you execute only specific test cases using TestNG XML?

• By using a wildcard character in the TestNG XML file

• By listing each test case in the TestNG XML file

• By tagging test cases with a group name and specifying the group in TestNG XML

• By using the 'include' tag for each test case

What is the benefit of using the groups feature in TestNG?

• It automatically orders test methods alphabetically

• It provides detailed logging of test execution

• It simplifies the process of running specific sets of test cases

• It allows for parallel execution of test methods

What is a common interview question related to TestNG groups?

• How to exclude test methods from execution

• How to change the order of test method execution

• How to execute test methods in parallel

• How to run a subset of test cases using groups

Why is understanding TestNG features important for interviews?

• It shows familiarity with a popular testing framework

• It indicates experience with manual testing

• It demonstrates knowledge of Java programming

• It proves ability to write complex algorithms
