Windows - Schedule Testng.xml to run automatically without Jenkins

1st create a batch file to run Testng.xml automatically.

For Maven project the batch file looks similar to below. If your project is not a maven project(you need to specify the path of the libs explicitly)

set projectLocation=<C:\SVN-IndirectWorkspace\...>

cd %projectLocation%

mvn clean test -DsuiteXmlFile=<Path of testng.xml>

pause

Ex(Maven Project):

set projectLocation=C:\SVN-IndirectWorkspace\TestProj\

cd %projectLocation%

mvn clean test -DsuiteXmlFile=testng.xml

pause

Ex(Normal Project):

set projectLocation=C:\GitRapo\MyProject

cd C:\GitRapo\MyProject

set classpath=C:\GitRapo\MyProject\bin;C:\GitRapo\MyProject\lib\*

java org.testng.TestNG C:\GitRapo\MyProject\testng.xml

Test the bat file once by executing it.

Now we can create a Windows Task to run this batch file on the desired time(Daily/weekly etc).
