TestNG is testing framework enhancing the Junit framework.

Lets look at different annotations it provides for the test execution stand point.

Following is the list of all annotations that one may require to control after or before facts of test execution. These methods will execute before or after the event is called. These annotations does not depend on the test execution status.

@BeforeTest
@AfterTest
@BeforeGroups
@AfterGroups
@BeforeClass
@AfterClass
@BeforeMethod
@AfterMethod

@BeforeGroups("Sanity")
	public void beforeGroups() {
		System.out.println("Calling before groups");
	}
