Class-level `@Ignore` does not disable execution of tests in nested classes

Open Philzen opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

TestNG Version

v7.10.2

@Ignore
public class TestngClassLevelAnnotationTest {

    @Test void foobar() {
        System.out.println("Foobar!");
    }

    public static class TopicTests {

        @Test void baz() {
            System.out.println("Baz!");
        }
    }
}

Expected behavior

From the JavaDoc of @Ignore

Notice that @Ignore on a class will disable all test methods of the class. Ignoring a class will ignore tests from child classes too.

Actual behavior

Baz!

===============================================
Default Suite
Total tests run: 1, Passes: 1, Failures: 0, Skips: 0
===============================================

Suggested solution

Update the (Java)Doc, as users probably rely on this behavior (and it is the much simpler fix).

Is the issue reproducible on runner?
