Jenkins not running TestNG Tests - selenium

Question

I've got an TestNG project which was running on Jenkins. For some reason which I don't know it stopped running the tests. It compiles perfectly but it doesn't run the the test. Here is the output of a run:
<===[JENKINS REMOTING CAPACITY]===>channel started
log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger
(org.apache.commons.beanutils.converters.BooleanConverter).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

If anyone knows what could be happening I would appreciate the help.

Answer 1

If your using Maven Surefire, did you correctly specify a "test include" filter? The test phase will search the packages in src/test/java for classes containing the #Test annotation. It's easy to misconfigure Maven for the location of the src/test/java directory and so just be careful and you will figure it out.

Answer 2

<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0-M3</version>
<configuration>
<suiteXmlFiles>
<suiteXmlFile>testng.xml</suiteXmlFile>
</suiteXmlFiles>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
<dependencies>
Include maven surefire plugin end of the properties & before the dependencies. Use your "TestNG" XML file name.Use above code.
