I want to use the Test Listener feature to add the open/close browser and login/logout.

But there are some test cases that i don’r really need to login because the tests are mainly on the login page and some links on the login page.

Is it possible to customize?

Certainly. I do this with my tests/suites.

If you organize your tests so that those that need login are stored beneath a specific folder and those that don’t need login are beneath a different folder, then you can use the TestCaseID to find out which need to call your login code.

In my TestCase structure, pages that use/need login are stored under “Pages”…

> Test Cases
  > Pages
    > Page Type 1
      Test Login Required Page
      Test Another Login Required Page
    > Page Type 2
      Test This Page with Login
      Test That Page with Login
  > Other Things
    Test No Login Required Page
    Test Another No Login Required Page

Hello Russ,

Can you please let know how to setup the above mentioned.
I have created the folder structure as u said.

What you (and @porte.marvin) are asking would require me to write the whole thing for you. Sorry, that’s just not practical.

In brief, it would do this:

  1. Use a listener (@beforeTestCase)
  2. Examine the testCaseId
    2.1 If it requires login, call a login method (Keyword Class)
    2.2 Else, don’t
  3. Drink beer.
