I have created a testng.xml file to run a suite of my selenium webdriver test. From eclipse I can run this just fine as a testNG Suite, but from the command like I get the following error.

testng.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">; 
  <suite name="CATS Regression Suite"> 
    <test name="WEB UI"> 
      <parameter name="uid" value="TestAccount"/> 
      <parameter name="pid" value="Test123"/> 
      <classes> 
         <class name="VerifyLogin"/> 
      </classes> 
     </test> 
    <!-- Test --> 
  </suite> 
  <!-- Suite -->

command ran:

java org.testng.TestNG testng.xml

Exception trace:

Code (As shared in the comments)

public class VerifyLogin extends TestBase {
   @Parameters({"uid","pid"}) 
   @Test 
   public void verifyLogin(String uid, String pid) throws IOException, Exception {
      String userName = uid;
      String passWord = pid; 
      // new instance 
      ExtentReports extent = new ExtentReports("C:\\Users\\AdvancedReport.html", true); 
      //starting test 
      ExtentTest test = extent.startTest("Login Test", "Regression"); 
      // log step 
      test.log(LogStatus.PASS, "Browser Running"); 
      TestBase login=new TestBase(); 
      login.testLogin(userName, passWord);
   }
}

  • What does the signature of your test method look like? It looks like it's expecting a string and not getting it. – mrfreester Mar 06 '17 at 22:43

  • You are not using the same testng version between the command line and eclipse. Check it. – juherr Mar 06 '17 at 22:59
  • so it's a data driven test? What does your actual method signature look like? It would be something like `@Test public void main()`. Normally I wouldn't name a test `main()`, but just for clarity your error seems to be referring to a test called `main`, not to be confused with a program's `main` method. – mrfreester Mar 06 '17 at 23:01
  • public class VerifyLogin extends TestBase { @Parameters({"uid", "pid"}) @Test public void verifyLogin(String uid, String pid) throws IOException, Exception { String userName = uid; String passWord = pid; // new instance ExtentReports extent = new ExtentReports("C:\\Users\\AdvancedReport.html", true); //starting test ExtentTest test = extent.startTest("Login Test", "Regression"); // log step test.log(LogStatus.PASS, "Browser Running"); TestBase login=new TestBase(); login.testLogin(userName, passWord); – CJ2K Mar 06 '17 at 23:09
  • @CJ2K - I have extracted the code that you shared and included it in your question after editing it. It still is not complete. You would need to show us the complete code include the import statements. I have a gut feel that you perhaps might be mixing up JUnit and TestNG annotations. – Krishnan Mahadevan Mar 07 '17 at 03:33
  • @CJ2K Do you have that `@Test` annotation where it shouldn't be? Specifically somewhere you have a `main` method? Maybe the issue isn't in your `verifyLogin` test – mrfreester Mar 07 '17 at 17:32

Just remove String uid, String pid in main method and run once again as 

public void verifyLogin(String uid, String pid)

to

public void verifyLogin()

If you want to give parameters in @Test method, then you need to provide valid data provider.
