Testng how to pass parameter to the listener -

i know way pass parameter inside listener eater suite.xml or code itself

i need in parallel test know on device i'm running test in order make reports

this example of have / wish achieve

the suite file

<suite name="searchbutton" parallel="tests" thread-count="5">     <test name="samsungs6">         <parameter name="deviceudid"  value="04157df40862d02f"/>         <classes>             <class name="mytestscenario"/>         </classes>     </test> </suite> 

or

@test public void researchtext (){     string deviceudid = "1234"; } 

i want able find device udid in listener

public void ontestskipped(itestresult result) {     system.out.println("my deviceudid "); } 

i tried find

system.getproperty("deviceudid") // or result.getattribute() // or result.getparameters() 

without success

any idea on how ?

get* methods cannot work if don't use set* somewhere else.

i see 2 options:

1. from test setting data in itestcontext (itestresult#gettestcontext()) injectable. see the related documentation.
2. from listener annotation metadata on test method (ie: @udid("1234")). may more difficult use in test if want avoid duplication.

according example:

@test public void researchtext(itestcontext context){     string deviceudid = "1234";     context.setattribute("udid", deviceudid) }  public void ontestskipped(itestresult result) {     system.out.println("my deviceudid " + result.gettestcontext().getattribute("udid")); } 

or

<suite name="searchbutton" parallel="tests" thread-count="5">     <test name="samsungs6">         <parameter name="deviceudid"  value="04157df40862d02f"/>         <classes>             <class name="mytestscenario"/>         </classes>     </test> </suite>  @parameters({ "deviceudid" }) @test public void researchtext (string deviceudid, itestcontext context){     context.setattribute("udid", deviceudid) }  public void ontestskipped(itestresult result) {     system.out.println("my deviceudid " + result.gettestcontext().getattribute("udid")); }
