Execution of Selenium Script even after Test case fails

Question

Actually I'm trying to run the test cases for a web application in Eclipse using TestNG. But i'm having some problem while running the Selenium Scripts. I just want to continue the execution even though some test cases fails. But i don't know how to do that.

I'm very new to this topic friends. Please Help me..!!! Anyway Thanks in Advance.

Using the alwaysRun = true annotation in TestNG is not going to entirely solve your problem.

In order to allow Selenium to continue even when there is an occasional Exception, you need to define a Wait object with the FluentWait class, like so:

Wait<WebDriver> wait = new FluentWait<WebDriver>(driver)
       .withTimeout(30, SECONDS)
       .pollingEvery(5, SECONDS)
       .ignoring( NoSuchElementException.class, ElementNotFoundException.class );
// using a customized expected condition
WebElement foo1 = wait.until(new Function<WebDriver, WebElement>() {
     public WebElement apply( WebDriver driver ) {
       // do something here if you want
       return driver.findElement( By.id("foo") );
     }
   });
// using a built-in expected condition
WebElement foo2 = wait.until( ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(
     By.id("foo") );

This gives you the ability to ignore exceptions whenever .findElement is called until a certain pre-configured timeout is reached.
