Skip test method results in testng report

I have a question about testng.

I have something like:

@Test
public initializeMethod() {
//here I do something that is needed before my real test method
}

@Test (depends on initializeMethod) 
public myRealTest1{
//my test 1
}

@Test (depends on myRealTest1) 
public myRealTest2{
//my test 2
}

Is it possible to skip initializeMethod in testng report (I mean that in report I want to see real count of tests (2 but not 3))?

@Test annotation is used specifically for the tests. You have to annotate the method initializeMethod() properly with a non-test annotation. Several options are:

@BeforeTest
@BeforeClass

Other possible annotations:

@BeforeSuite
@BeforeGroups
@BeforeMethod // if you want `initializeMethod()` run before every test.

If you want to run initializeMethod() before each real Test method, you can use @BeforeMethod annotation. @BeforeMethod: The annotated method will be run before each test method. So, you need to declare the method as below:

@BeforeMethod
public initializeMethod() {
//here I do something that is needed before my real test method
}

If you want to run initializeMethod() only once, you can use @BeforeClass annotation. @BeforeClass: The annotated method will be run before the first test method in the current class is invoked. So, you need to declare the method as below:

@BeforeClass
public initializeMethod() {
//here I do something that is needed before my real test method
}
