I work for the AWS Device Farm team. From your description it seems that you are using the TestNG framework.

  1. All your tests are supposed to be under src/test as you mentioned.

  2. Your testng.xml needs to be at the root of the tests.jar that gets created as per the steps mentioned in the documentation here

  3. If you are not aware on how to put the testng xml in the test jar one way is to have a target in your pom.xml like mentioned below 

    <plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugin</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.12</version>
    <configuration>
        <suiteXmlFiles>
            <suiteXmlFile>src/test/resources/testng.xml</suiteXmlFile>
        </suiteXmlFiles>
    </configuration> 
</plugin>

  4. Not all the features like ordering of tests using testng.xml are supported right now but you can definitely tell which tests you want to run in the testing.xml which seems to be your primary requirement.
