@TestExecutionListeners

@TestExecutionListeners is used to register listeners for the annotated test class, its subclasses, and its nested classes. If you wish to register a listener globally, you should register it via the automatic discovery mechanism described in TestExecutionListener Configuration.

The following example shows how to register two TestExecutionListener implementations:

  • Java

  • Kotlin

@ContextConfiguration
@TestExecutionListeners({CustomTestExecutionListener.class, AnotherTestExecutionListener.class}) (1)
class CustomTestExecutionListenerTests {
	// class body...
}
1 Register two TestExecutionListener implementations.
@ContextConfiguration
@TestExecutionListeners(CustomTestExecutionListener::class, AnotherTestExecutionListener::class) (1)
class CustomTestExecutionListenerTests {
	// class body...
}
1 Register two TestExecutionListener implementations.

By default, @TestExecutionListeners provides support for inheriting listeners from superclasses or enclosing classes. See @Nested test class configuration and the @TestExecutionListeners javadoc for an example and further details. If you discover that you need to switch back to using the default TestExecutionListener implementations, see the note in Registering TestExecutionListener Implementations.
