+# TestNG Ant Integration
+
+This repository houses the code related to TestNG Ant integration so as to help run TestNG tests via an Ant build file.
+
+## Pre-requisites
+
+* JDK11 (or) Higher
+* TestNG `v.7.10.2` or higher on the CLASSPATH.
+
+## Jar location
+
+The TestNG Ant jar can be downloaded from [here](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/testng/testng-ant/1.0.0/)
+
+This jar contains ONLY the TestNG Ant integration code alone. It is NOT a fat/uber jar that includes TestNG within it.
+TestNG jar needs to be explicitly provided in the CLASSPATH for the integration to work fine.
