InnvocationCount is one of the feature available in TestNG. InvocationCount is used when we want to run the same test multiple times. If we want to run single @Test 10 times at a single thread, then invocationCount can be used. To invoke a method multiple times, below syntax is used.
@Test(invocationCount = 3)
In this example, the @Test method will execute for 3 times each on a single thread.
In this tutorial, we will illustrate how to get the current invocation count.
Step 1 − Create a TestNG class, TestInvocationCount.
Step 2 − Write two @Test methods in the class TestInvocationCountas shown in the programming code section below. Add invocationCount=3 to method verifyLinkedIn and 2 to validLoginTest.
Step 3 − Create the testNG.xml as given below to run the TestNG classes.
Step 4 − Now, run the testNG.xml or directly testNG class in IDE or compile and run it using command line.
Step 5 − In the output, the user can see a total of 1 thread running sequentially for all invocations of @Test.

@Test(invocationCount = 3)
public void verifyLinkedIn() {
System.out.println("Test Case 1 with Thread Id - "+Thread.currentThread().getId());
driver.manage().window().maximize();
Boolean linkedInIcon = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='social-icons']/a[1]/img")).isEnabled();
assertTrue(linkedInIcon);
}
@Test(invocationCount = 2)
public void validLoginTest() throws InterruptedException {
System.out.println("Test Case 2 with Thread Id - "+Thread.currentThread().getId());
driver.findElement(By.name("txtUsername")).sendKeys("Admin");
driver.findElement(By.name("txtPassword")).sendKeys("admin123");
driver.findElement(By.id("btnLogin")).click();
String expectedTitle = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='content']/div/div[1]/h1")).getText();
Assert.assertTrue(expectedTitle.contains("Dashboard"));
}
@AfterMethod
public void closeBrowser() {
driver.quit();
}
}
testng.xml
This is a configuration file that is used to organize and run the TestNG test cases. It is very handy when limited tests are needed to execute rather than the full suite.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "https://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">
<suite name="Suite">
<test name="Invocation Test">
<classes>
<class name="com.example.listeners.TestInvocationCount"/>
</classes>
</test> <!-- Test -->
</suite> <!-- Suite -->
The output of the above program is
We can add threadPoolSize to the @Test.
threadPoolSize – It defines the size of the thread pool for any method. The method will be invoked from multiple threads as specified by invocationCount.
@Test(invocationCount = 3, threadPoolSize)
