Junit: ignore or skip entire test class

I have a scenario where I want to ignore an entire junit test class containing a bunch of test methods based on a particular boolean value that I am reading from a properties file. This property is a boolean value. If false, the entire test class should be skipped from execution.

I tried using the @Ignore annotation but not sure if that can be used for such a scenario.

Please, help.

AFAIK, @Ignore

won't help you. Try using it Assume

with something like this (if the guess doesn't work, then the test looks like it was ignored. Of course, you can put a sentence in each test method if the solution is not reasonable):



import org.junit.Assume;
import org.junit.BeforeClass;
import org.junit.Test;

public class TestWithAssume {

    @BeforeClass
    public static void beforeClass() throws Exception {
        Assume.assumeTrue(true); // LOAD THE VALUE FROM THE PROPERTIES FILE AS NEEDED...
    }

    @Test
    public void test1() throws Exception {
    }

    @Test
    public void test2() throws Exception {
    }

}
