@AfterSuite is one of the TestNG Annotations. As the name defines, @AfterSuite is executed after the execution of all the test cases inside a TestNG Suite. This annotation allows developers to specify various actions to be taken after the execution of all the test cases inside a TestNG Suite.

Let’s understand the @AfterSuite annotation through an example.

Step 1: In the Maven Project, create a TestNG Class that contains @AfterSuite.

After_Suite.Java (@AfterSuite)

Java
package com.geeksforgeeks.test;

import org.testng.annotations.AfterSuite;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class After_Suite {
 
  @AfterSuite
  public void afterSuite() {
      System.out.println("TestNG runs the test cases in alphabetical order");
  }
  @Test
  public void signup() {
      System.out.println("Test for signup");
  }
  @Test
  public void login() {
      System.out.println("Test for login");
  }
  
}

Now, let’s explain what this code does:

Package Declaration: After_Suite Class is on the com.geeksforgeeks.test package.

Imports: After_Suite Class imports annotations and classes from the TestNG framework (org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod and org.testng.annotations.Test).

After_Suite Class: This is the main test class. It contains test methods and before class methods.

afterSuite (@AfterSuite): This method is annotated with @AfterSuite, indicating that it should be executed after suite execution this suite contains many classes. It prints this ”TestNG runs the test cases in alphabetical order ” statement.

Test Methods (@Test):

  • Each test method is annotated with @Test, indicating that it is a test case.
  • There are two test methods: signup() and login().
  • Each test method prints its respective statement.
  • After operating, the result is printed to the console.

Step 2: Now, we create the AnnotationsTest.xml file to configure the After_Suite Class.

XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "https://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">
<suite name="suite">
    <test name="test1">
        <classes>
               <class name="com.geeksforgeeks.test.After_Suite" /> 
        </classes>
    </test>
</suite>

Step 3: Run the AnnotationsTest.xml Right-click on the AnnotationsTest.xml file, move the cursor down to Run As and then click on the TestNG Suite.
