TestNG execution halts between tests

I am refactoring a huge bunch of selenium tests and trying to execute them in testNG. The problem is test execution halts after each tests(eventually getting timedout) irrespective of the results. When i do a browser refresh the tests continue. I am not sure what the problem is.

My tests are like this

@Test(groups = {" Portal - Page Login Tests"})
public void testPageLoginWithInvalidPwd() throws Exception{
    Assert.assertEquals( Login(GetWebDriver(...);
}

@Test(groups = {" Portal - Page Login Tests"})
public void testPageLoginWithValidPws() throws Exception{
    Assert.assertEquals( Login(...);
}

Here is my xml file

<suite name="test-single">
    <parameter name="Url" value="https:test.com" />
    <parameter name="Browser" value="firefox" />
    <test verbose="1" name="test">
        <classes>
            <class name="test.PageloginPage">
                <methods>
                    <include name="testPageLoginWithInvalidPwd"></include>
                    <include name="testPageLoginWithValidPws"></include>
                    </methods>
                </class>
        </classes>

Thanks in advance.

Solution

I downgraded the browser and driver versions for 62 and 2.34 and issue is not seen
