Provide ability to reload .properties on runtime about reportportal

[avarabyeu]

@Lalesia properties are being loaded from here: PropertiesLoader

If i'd like to override properties you can use jvm\env vars or replace\override it on the code level in Configuration Module

Example of extending TestNG Listener can be found here

Way too odd. I was expecting to see something like
PropertiesLoader.add("my_custom_parts.properties");
or
PropertiesLoader.reload();

usecase1 - I'm using ReportPortalTestNGListener and I want too change Launch name prior to test start but after framework initialization.
usecase2 - I'm using ReportPortalTestNGListener and I want too add more tags after framework initialization

@mohdsgithub Great thanks it works for me too. As it seems, it will override the values present in reportportal.properties if provided via command line ? :)
awesome!!
Also I stored 'rp.enable' parameter value passed from command line. This will enable us to decide whether to send screen shot attachment to RP or not in case of test failure

@iKozzz we can provide method for completely re-initialize guice app context. Will it work for you?

[iKozzz]

Yeah, we can run this method on @BeforeSomething

@avarabyeu up?

Added in 3.0. Additional details on making this will be provided in documentation

Hi everyone!
Where I can find in documetation this approach?
I really need it right now for project with a lot of modules and projects, so it would be great to change property file in runtime. Thanks

@DzmitryHumianiuk I have written below snippet in 'BeforeSuite' for setting launch name in reportporttal.properties.

PropertiesConfiguration conf = new PropertiesConfiguration("src/main/resources/reportportal.properties");
			conf.setProperty("rp.launch", "Kunal");
			conf.save();

It is set successfully but after Reportportal listener is initialized in suite.xml file.
Is there a way to set it prior Reportportal listener initialization ?

[DzmitryHumianiuk]

@iKozzz can you comment on above as well?

You can achieve using Environment variables. Its working fine for me

Create environment variables or pass the value from command line. I am passing it from maven command:
mvn -U -fn -Dsurefire.suiteXmlFiles=D:\testng\webdriver\singleTest.xml -Drp.launch=MOH -Drp.enable=true clean test

we came up with custom runner so we can play with properties prior to ReportPortal.listener start

Can anyone of you also look at the issue tagged with RP usage with Selenium Grid.

@KunalShokeen432 I am using RP with my selenium testng framework.
