Postman CLI Vs Newman

The Postman v10 release in Q3 of 2022 introduced the Postman CLI. If you are interested to know whether you should move from Newman to Postman CLI, please go through this: https://learning.postman.com/docs/postman-cli/postman-cli-overview

Here is a direct comparison table: Postman CLI Vs Newman: https://learning.postman.com/docs/postman-cli/postman-cli-overview/#comparing-the-postman-cli-and-newman

This should help to decide which command-line companion to use:

My 2 cents: Of course, Newman is not deprecated (yet) but I think it can be the case that the Postman team will work more actively on Postman CLI than Newman. If you are an existing Newman user, there is no push right now to move to Postman CLI. However, if you are just getting started with grokking backend automation with Postman then give it a shot to Postman CLI.

The use of Verbose attribute in testNG or POM.xml (maven-surefire-plugin)

At times, we see some weird behavior in your testNG execution and feel that the information displayed is insufficient and would like to see more details. At other times, the output on the console is too verbose and we may want to only see the errors. This is where a verbose attribute can help you- it is used to define the amount of logging to be performed on the console. The verbosity level is 0 to 10, where 10 is most detailed. Once you set it to 10, you'll see that console output will contain information regarding the tests, methods, and listeners, etc. <suite name="Suite" thread-count="5" verbose="10"> Note* You can specify -1 and this will put TestNG in debug mode. The default level is 0. Alternatively, you can set the verbose level through attribute in "maven-surefire-plugin" in pom.xml, as shown in the image. #testNG #automationTesting #verbose # #testAutomation
