How to execute the Task Scheduler for eclipse?

Question

Currently working on Selenium WebDriver and using Java. I have asked a question earlier to create the Task scheduler and i created as mentioned in the How to create scheduler to run my script every night at 12.00- Selenium WebDriver But the Problem it is opening the eclipse at the time i have scheduled but the problem Once it open the eclipse it need to run all test one by one

I tried in cmd prompt, and getting error Error: Could not find or load main class org.testng.TestNG

Anyone please suggest me to fix the issue.

I have a run.bat as follows:

set ProjectPath=C:\Documents and Settings\amth\workspace\OneReports\src\
echo %ProjectPath%
set classpath=%ProjectPath%bin;%ProjectPath%lib*
echo %classpath%
java org.testng.TestNG %ProjectPath%Test.xml

While checking in the Command Prompt it is appearing as follows:

C:\Documents and Settings\amth>cd desktop

C:\Documents and Settings\amth\Desktop>run.bat
C:\Documents and Settings\amth\workspace\OneReports\src\
C:\Documents and Settings\amth\workspace\OneReports\src\bin;C:\Documents and Settings\amth\workspace\OneReports\src\lib*C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_51\bin;

 Press any key to continue . . .

java org.testng.eclipse C:\Documents and Settings\amth\workspace\OneReports\src\Test.xml

C:\Documents and Settings\amth\Desktop>

Is Jenkins and some other scheduler will work for windowsxp

Currently using TestNG framework, Selenium webdriver, Java code

Launching eclipse for running tests one by one is a bad idea.

You just create a testsuite & launch that testsuite using batch file.

Without using testng.xml

import org.testng.TestListenerAdapter;
import org.testng.TestNG;

public class TestngTestSuite {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        TestListenerAdapter tla = new TestListenerAdapter();
        TestNG testng = new TestNG();
        testng.setTestClasses(new Class[] { ExampleTest.class,ExampleTest2.class });
        testng.addListener(tla);
        testng.run();
    }
}

Using testng.xml

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import org.testng.TestNG;
import org.testng.xml.XmlSuite;

    public class TestngTestSuiteUsingXML {

        public static void main(String[] args) {

            List<String> files=new ArrayList<String>();
            files.add("/Users/test/testng/testng.xml");
            XmlSuite suite = new XmlSuite();
            suite.setSuiteFiles(files);
            List<XmlSuite> suites = new ArrayList<XmlSuite>();
            suites.add(suite);
            TestNG tng = new TestNG();
            tng.setXmlSuites(suites);
            tng.run();
        }

    }

Create testsuite using any of the above method and try to run testsuite from batch file by putting all required jars in classpath.

After that schedule a task in windows to run batch file

Edit-1

• Create Jar file with all your required source files. Including testsuite.
• How to create Jar?
• Download testng jar
• place both the jars in classpath while executing testsuite file.

Example:

Your jars & xml is in
C:\JARs> yoursource.jar, testng.jsr, testng.xml

Your testsuite must contain proper path to testng.xml
List<String> files=new ArrayList<String>();
files.add("C:\\JARs\\testng.xml");

Now try to execute testsuite 
c:\JARs> java -cp "yoursource.jar":"testng.jar" test.TestngTestSuiteUsingXML
