Question

What am I doing wrong??? I have no idea why the parameters aren't passed!!!
Am trying to pass the values from an external excel sheet... Please help!!
And guys please don't mark this as duplicate!!
Thanks in advance
P.S I am trying not to use maven..
import Data.Bean;
import org.easetech.easytest.annotation.DataLoader;
import org.easetech.easytest.annotation.Param;
import org.easetech.easytest.loader.LoaderType;
import org.easetech.easytest.runner.DataDrivenTestRunner;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterClass;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeClass;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
/**

public class TestNGTestCases {
public TestNGTestCases() {
}
// TODO add test methods here.
// The methods must be annotated with annotation #Test. For example:
//
// #Test
// public void hello() {}
#BeforeClass
public static void setUpClass() throws Exception {
}
#AfterClass
public static void tearDownClass() throws Exception {
}
#BeforeMethod
public void setUpMethod() throws Exception {
}
#AfterMethod
public void tearDownMethod() throws Exception {
}
/**

*/
#RunWith(DataDrivenTestRunner.class)
#DataLoader(filePaths = {"d:/data/kishore/testdata.csv"}, loaderType = LoaderType.CSV)
public class TestExcelDataLoader {
Bean b = new Bean();
#Test
public void testwelcome(#Param(name = "name") String name, #Param(name = "custID") Integer custID) {
System.out.print("Executing getExcelTestData :");
// System.out.println("Name : " + name + " ID : " + custID);
b.setName(name);
b.setCustID(custID);
b.doit();
System.out.println("Name : " + b.getName() + " ID : " + b.getCustID() + " Result : " + b.getResult());
// System.out.println("Name : " + name + " ID : " + custID + " Result : " + b.getResult());
}
}
}
This is the Output I receive....

Not sure why do you need to use third party library to run TestNG with DataDrivenTestRunner.class. Below works well for all the cases without any issues. Also why did you create TestNGTestCases class as neither you are extending it nor adding any tests to it.
package practise;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
import org.testng.annotations.DataProvider;
public class SO34677983 {
#Test(dataProvider = "dp")
public void f(Integer CustId, String Name) {
System.out.println("Verifying something here");
}
#DataProvider
public Object[][] dp() throws IOException {
File csvRead = new File("someFilePath.csv");
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(csvRead));
String line = "";
Object[][] data = new Object[2][2];
int dataNum = 0;
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
data[dataNum][0] = line.split(",")[0];
data[dataNum][1] = line.split(",")[1];
dataNum++;
}
br.close();
return data;
}
}
