<br>
One of attributes <tt>classpath</tt>, <tt>classpathref</tt> or nested <tt>
&lt;classpath&gt;</tt> must be used for providing the tests classpath. 
<p>One of the attributes <tt>xmlfilesetref</tt>, <tt>classfilesetref</tt> or 
nested <tt>&lt;xmlfileset&gt;</tt>, respectively <tt>&lt;classfileset&gt;</tt> must be used 
for providing the tests. </p>
<p><u>Note</u>: if using JDK 1.4 one of the attributes <tt>sourcedir</tt>, <tt>
sourcedirref</tt> or the nested <tt>&lt;sourcedir&gt;</tt> must be provided. </p>
<p><u>Note</u>: using <tt>&lt;classfileset&gt;</tt> doesn't automatically adds the 
test classes to your classpath: you might need to repeat these classes in the 
classpath for the task to work.</p>
<h3><a name="nested">Nested Elements</a></h3>
<h4>classpath</h4>
<p>The <tt>&lt;testng&gt;</tt> task supports a nested <tt>&lt;classpath&gt;</tt> element 
that represents a <em>PATH</em>-like structure. </p>
<h4>bootclasspath</h4>
<p>The location of bootstrap class files can be specified using this <em>
PATH-like</em> structure - will be ignored if <tt>fork </tt>is not set. </p>
<h4>xmlfileset</h4>
<p>The suite definitions (<tt>testng.xml</tt>) can be passed to the task with a
<tt><a href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTypes/fileset.html">FileSet</a></tt> 
structure. </p>
<h4>classfileset</h4>
<p>TestNG can also run directly on classes, also supplied with a <tt>
<a href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTypes/fileset.html">FileSet</a></tt> 
structure.</p>
<h4>sourcedir</h4>
<p>A PATH-like structure for JDK 1.4 tests using Javadoc annotations. </p>
<h4>jvmarg</h4>
<p>Additional parameters may be passed to the new VM via nested <tt>&lt;jvmarg&gt;</tt> 
elements. For example: </p>

<pre class="brush: xml">
&lt;testng&gt;
   &lt;jvmarg value="-Djava.compiler=NONE" /&gt;
   &lt;!-- ... --&gt;
&lt;/testng&gt;
</pre>

<h4>sysproperty</h4>
<p>Use nested <tt>&lt;sysproperty&gt;</tt> elements to specify system properties 
required by the class. These properties will be made available to the virtual 
machine during the execution of the test. The attributes for this element are 
the same as for <em>environment variables</em>:</p>

<pre class="brush: xml">
&lt;testng&gt;
   &lt;sysproperty key="basedir" value="${basedir}"/&gt;
   &lt;!-- ... --&gt;
&lt;/testng&gt;
</pre>

<p>will run the test and make the <code>basedir</code> property 
available to the test.</p>

<h4>reporter</h4>
<p>An inner <tt>&lt;reporter&gt;</tt> element is an alternative way to inject a
custom report listener allowing the user to set custom properties in order to fine-tune
the behavior of the reporter at run-time.
<br>
The element has one <tt>classname</tt> attribute which is mandatory, indicating
the class of the custom listener. In order to set the properties of the reporter, the
<tt>&lt;reporter&gt;</tt> element can contain several nested <tt>&lt;property&gt;</tt>
elements which will provide the <tt>name</tt> and <tt>value</tt> attributes as seen below:
</p>
<pre class="brush: xml">
&lt;testng ...&gt;
   ...
   &lt;reporter classname="com.test.MyReporter"&gt;
      &lt;property name="methodFilter" value="*insert*"/&gt;
      &lt;property name="enableFiltering" value="true"/&gt;
   &lt;/reporter&gt;
   ...
&lt;/testng&gt;
</pre>
<pre class="brush: java">
public class MyReporter {

  public String getMethodFilter() {...}
  public void setMethodFilter(String methodFilter) {...}
  public boolean isEnableFiltering() {...}
  public void setEnableFiltering(boolean enableFiltering) {...}
  ...
}
</pre>
You have to consider though that for the moment only a limited set of property types are supported:
<tt>String, int, boolean, byte, char, double, float, long, short</tt>.

<h4>env</h4>
<p>It is possible to specify environment variables to pass to the TestNG forked 
virtual machine via nested <tt>&lt;env&gt;</tt> elements. For a description of the <tt>
&lt;env&gt;</tt> element's attributes, see the description in the <em>
<a href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/exec.html">exec</a></em> task.</p>
<h3>Examples</h3>
<h4>Suite xml</h4>

<pre class="brush: text">
&lt;testng classpathref="run.cp"
        outputDir="${testng.report.dir}"
        sourcedir="${test.src.dir}"
        haltOnfailure="true"&gt;
 
   &lt;xmlfileset dir="${test14.dir}" includes="testng.xml"/&gt;
&lt;/testng&gt;
</pre>

<h4>Class FileSet</h4>
<pre class="brush: xml">
&lt;testng classpathref="run.cp"
		outputDir="${testng.report.dir}"
		haltOnFailure="true"M verbose="2"&gt;
	&lt;classfileset dir="${test.build.dir}" includes="**/*.class" /&gt;
&lt;/testng&gt;
