What is TestNG Annotations

Hi everyone in this post we will learn basics of TestNG annotations. In our previous tutorial we have seen introduction and setup of TextNG. Now lets learn what is TestNG annotations and how to use TestNG annotations to define proper test suit execution flow.

TestNG Annotation

Lets understand the simple example given below which will help you understand how annotations helps to define the flow.In TestNG annotations @Test is the smallest annotation here. @Method will be executed first, before and after the execution of @Test. The same way @Class will be executed first, before and after the execution of @Method and so on.
