TestNG - Custom reporter listener issue with failsafe plugin

Go To StackoverFlow.com

I have a project in which I used maven fail-safe plugin to run the integration tests. I am using the Maven + TestNG framework combination. For the project purpose, earlier I have modified the TestNG's default XML Report to customize the project needs.

I implemented the above said requirement in a CustomReporter class which extends the TestNG's IReporterinterface. Earlier I used surefire plugin to run these test methods and adding the listener mechanism in the surefire plugin works as expected.

Now for certain project needs, I need to migrate to failsafe plugin. So I bypassed the test phase execution of surefire by configuring the POM file.

 <plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
            <skip>true</skip>
        </configuration>
</plugin>

Then I have added the failsafe configuration in the POM file as below;

 <

plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-failsafe-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.12</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <id>fail-safe-myplug</id>
            <phase>integration-test</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>integration-test</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
                <skip>false</skip> 
                    <properties>                
                        <property>  
                        <name>listener</name>
                            <value>com.CustomXmlReport</value>
                                </property>
                            </properties>
                            <includes>
                                <include>**/*Test.java</include>
                            </includes>                     
                        </configuration>
                    </execution>
                </executions>

            </plugin>

With this new POM, integration test invocation with failsafe plugin is failing. Following are the log;

Eventhough I am using failsafe plugin in the integration-test phase, I am getting the exception

Configuring TestNG with: org.apache.maven.surefire.testng.conf.TestNGMapConfigurator@ab50cd org.apache.maven.surefire.util.`SurefireReflectionException

How to resolve this issue ?

Note : When I tried to execute the tests using surefire plugin, the listener mechanishm works as expected.

Actually the issue is, the compatibility with Failsafe and TestNG versions. I was using TestNG 5.9v with failsafe plugin 2.12v. This is the root cause for the issue.

I downgraded the Failsafe version to 2.5v and the issue got resolved.

Thanks to google groups for guiding me to think in version perspective. http://groups.google.com/group/testng-users/browse_thread/thread/b54417e5a61c5c62
