@mihalyr - Can you please edit this issue and include the TestNG version information as well (if you aren't using 7.3.0
)
Yep, this is on 7.3.0
also, added to the description
@mihalyr - This is fixed as part of https://github.com/cbeust/testng/issues/2321. This problem should go away when you use -Dtestng.thread.affinity=true
and then run a suite that contains this class when running parallel instances.
@juherr - Considering the fact that the current TestNG design will not let a user run dependent methods in the same thread as the independent thread (without using -Dtestng.thread.affinity=true
which only works as long there's only one downstream dependent method for every independent method), what do you suggest that we do in this case ?
@krmahadevan I suggest that we keep the issue open and update the documentation in order to warn about the current limitation.
@krmahadevan Thanks for the update, which version will include the changes you mentioned, 7.4.0?
Yes 7.4.0
will contain the changes
@krmahadevan , when can we expect 7.4.0 to be released? I am struggling with this as well.
@ristoporila - Its going to take some time since before 7.4.0
gets released.
@cbeust @juherr so far we have only around 8 bug fixes that have landed in master. Do we go ahead with a release ?
@krmahadevan 👍
This is still a bug in v7.8.0.
@BrandonDudek - Do you have a sample that can be used to reproduce the problem ?
TestNG version 7.3.0
Dependent methods might not always execute in the correct order with
parallel=instances
, below is a reproducer, which quite often fails (not 100% reliable as sometimes does succeed too). Not sure why, but I could not reproduce it without the added delay. Also the number of test methods in the class had a relation to failures too.Is this a known issue? It seems I cannot use
parallel=instances
with dependent methods even if my code is thread safe if there are dependencies between test methods.Originally posted by @mihalyr in https://github.com/cbeust/testng/issues/751#issuecomment-699694723
