Running TestNG testng.xml tests from Eclipse

Question

I have some packages

com.company.testing.module1
com.company.testing.module2
com.company.testing.module3

I also have some classes that have TestNG annotations in

com.company.testing.tests

Now I put testng.xml in

com.company.testing

The XML file looks like

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<suite name="Foo">
    <test name="Bar">
        <package>
            <package name="com.company.testing.tests" />
        </package>
    </test>
</suite>

How do I run the suite from Eclipse? What Run Configuration should I do?

Answer 1

Install the TestNG plug-in and when you're done, you can just right click on your XML file and "Run as/Debug as... TestNG.

Answer 2

You'll need the testng plugin. Then its just a matter of running the testng task. See the docs for further details.
