TestNG

TestNG is a testing framework for the Java programming language inspired from JUnit and NUnit but introducing some new functionalities that make it more powerful and easier to use, such as:

• JDK 5 Annotations (JDK 1.4 is also supported with JavaDoc annotations). (however, as of version 4, JUnit also supports this)
• Flexible test configuration.
• Support for data-driven testing (with @DataProvider).
• Support for parameters.
• Allows distribution of tests on slave machines.
• Powerful execution model (no more TestSuite).
• Supported by a variety of tools and plug-ins (Eclipse, IDEA, Maven, etc...).
• Embeds BeanShell for further flexibility.
• Default JDK functions for runtime and logging (no dependencies).
• Dependent methods for application server testing.

TestNG is designed to cover all categories of tests: unit, functional, end-to-end, integration, etc...
