gecko driver selenium- How to Get test group name in TestNG

Question

I am new to testNG, I have the below code:

@BeforeMethod

public void getGroup(ITestAnnotation annotation){

    System.out.println("Group Name is --" + annotation.getGroups()) ;

}

@Test(groups = { "MobilSite" })

public void test1(){

    System.out.println("I am Running Mobile Site Test");

}

I want the group name in before method, I tried using ITestAnnotation but when I run the test I am getting the below error

Method getGroup requires 1 parameters but 0 were supplied in the @Configuration annotation.

Can you please help the parameter which I should pass from the XML?

Answer 1

Use the reflected method to get the group of the test as below :

@BeforeMethod

public void befMet(Method m){

        Test t = m.getAnnotation(Test.class);

        System.out.println(t.groups()[0]);//or however you want to use it.

}
