TestNG is a testing framework for Java that overcomes limitations of JUnit and supports features like parameters, dependent methods, flexible configuration, and powerful execution models. It uses annotations to guide test case execution and allows grouping, parallelization, and skipping of test cases. TestNG can be installed in Eclipse by adding the TestNG plugin, then a new Java project is created and the TestNG library is added to generate test reports from test classes using various TestNG annotations that are run from Eclipse.
Introduction of TestNG framework and its benefits over Junit frameworkBugRaptors
TestNG is a testing framework stirred from NUnit and JUnit but presenting some new functionalities that make it much easier and powerful to use. It is an open source automated testing framework; in which NG means Next Generation. TestNG is much more influential than JUnit but is inspired by JUnit. It is developed to be better than JUnit, specifically while testing integrated classes. We should thank Cedric Beust who has created TestNG.
What is TestNG in Selenium? TestNG is a data driven framework that allows to group, prioritise and order your test case in the most convenient manner YOU descire. Let's see more about it.

All software operates on data. High quality software needs to be thoroughly tested. This mandates to take the data into account and creates a need for easy and powerful solutions for data driven unit, functional and integration tests. Data driven tests are tests in which the test logic stays the same and the test data changes with each invocation of the test logic.
With TestNG implementing and executing data driven tests is easy as test data can be injected into test methods as method parameters. Unfortunately TestNG doesn't provide any standard for binding test data from external data sources, like XML, or CSV / Excel files, to the test method parameters. It rather leaves it up to each developer to implement her own solution for data binding. To minimize the effort this calls for the provision of a standardized solution.
This presentation shows how easy it is to implement data driven tests with TestNG. It then goes on to introduce the TestNG Data Binding framework. This framework fills the gap and provides a standardized solution for test data binding. It features an open, plug-in based architecture allowing for countless data formats to be bound to test method parameters. Currently it can bind data from CSV, Java .properties, text and XML files.

Testing RESTful Webservices using the REST-assured frameworkMicha Kops
The REST-assured framework and its features explained by example.
For detailed information please take a look at my full tutorial including the sources at http://www.hascode.com/2011/10/testing-restful-web-services-made-easy-using-the-rest-assured-framework/

T9: Automate REST Services Testing with RestAssured
Many browser, UI, and Java-based tools and frameworks can help you test REST services. However, in the world of continuous integration and delivery, manual UI- or browser-based tools typically fall short in many aspects—from early test development to developer support. When using Java-based libraries such as HttpClient, much code has to be written for all aspects of a web service call. These extensions or wrappers tend to be complex, hard to read, and difficult to maintain. This is where RestAssured comes in. RestAssured is an open source Java DSL for testing REST-based services, making test code more readable, easier to write, and cheaper to maintain. Learn how easily you can write HTTP get and post requests as well as more complex scenarios involving session management, authentication, and (de)serialization of objects. Take back good practices and an open source command line tool that can help you jumpstart your RestAssured testing.

Efficient JavaScript Unit Testing, May 2012Hazem Saleh
One of the biggest challenges of many web applications is the support on the different browsers with different versions. JavaScript code that runs on Safari does not necessarily mean it will work on IE or Firefox or Google chrome. This challenge is inherited from the lack of testing the JavaScript code that lives in the presentation tier from day one. Without unit testing the JavaScript code, organization will pay much money for testing, re-testing, and re-testing web applications for just deciding upgrading or supporting new browsers. This presentation shows the solution of this problem.

What is TestNG?
TestNG is testing framework used for the Java
programming language. TestNG is the framework which is
very useful to use with selenium WebDriver software
testing tool. The TestNG framework is introduced to
overcome the limitations of JUnit framework. Most of
the automation users are using this framework because
of its advantages & more supported features. Using this
TestNG framework we will learn how to generate test
reports. Also we can use Ant and xslt report along with
TestNg.
Features of TestNG Framework:
TestNG supports many powerful features & it is easy to
use. Let’s see what all new features are supported in
new testing framework:
Support for parameters.
Supports dependent methods testing.
Test configuration flexible.
Supports powerful execution model.
TestNG has a more elegant way of handling
parameterized tests with the data-provider concept.
For the same test class TestNG support for multiple
instances.
Default JDK functions for runtime and logging (no
dependencies).
Supported different Annotations like @BeforeSuite,
@AfterSuite, @BeforeClass, @AfterClass,
@BeforeTest, @AfterTest, @BeforeMethod,
@AfterMethod, @DataProvider, @Parameters, @Test
etc.
TestNG supports annotations which are very helpful to
guide test case executions. Similarly in JUnit, the
TestNG annotations are always preceded by the ‘@’
symbol. It permit you do parallel execution of test

cases & we can also skip the test cases effortlessly
while executing test cases.
TestNG is specially designed to cover all types testing
categories like Unit, Functional testing, Integration
testing, End-to-end etc. Using TestNG framework allows
us to generate test reports in both HTML and XML
formats. Using ANT with TestNG, we can generate
primitive Testng reports as well.
Advantages of TestNG over Junit:
1.In TestNG Annotations are easy to understand over
JUnit.
2.In TestNG there is no constraint like you have to
declare @BeforeClass and @AfterClass
3.As method name constraint is present in JUnit, such
method name constraint is not present in TestNG and
you can specify any test method names.
4.In TestNG enable you to grouping of test cases
easily which is not possible in JUnit.
5.TestNG supports following three 3 additional
setUp/tearDown level:
@Before/AfterSuite, @Before/AfterTest and
@Before/AfterGroup.
6.TestNG allows us to define the dependent test
7.Parallel execution of Selenium test cases is
possible in TestNG.
