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

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> 

Answer 2

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>
