Info

Yes

Provide an easy-to-remember test suite name.

Location in the test class file

CLI Command Syntax

Examples

Test class #1 has some @JoinSuite annotations.

@JoinSuite Example 1

@JoinSuite(name:'bucket_v2')

@JoinSuite(name:'aud')

@JoinSuite(name:'pnd')

@Database(id: 'qpt_pet', modes: ['tgt'])

class bucket_subheader_aud

{

@BeforeTest

setVariables()

{

...

And so does test class #2. But only 'bucket_v2' matches a suite in test class #1.

@JoinSuite Example 2

@JoinSuite(name:'bucket_v2')

@JoinSuite(name:'stg')

@Database(id: 'qpt_pet', modes: ['tgt', 'src'])

class stg_post_process

{

@Test

bkt_subheader_stg_bucket_valid()

{

...

When test suite 'aud' is run from the command line, only one test class is run, because only one test class is annotated for the 'aud' suite.

Run test suite 'aud'
