Turning off test-output in TestNG

I am currently launching my suit of tests using this XML file:

<suite name="something">
    <test name="generic valid compilation">
        <parameter name="isValid" value="true"/>
        <parameter name="testGroup" value="generic"/>
        <groups>
            <run>
                <include name="compilation"></include>
                <exclude name="module"></exclude>
                <exclude name="refinement"></exclude>
                <exclude name="specifications"></exclude>
            </run>
        </groups>
        <classes>
            <class name="test.TestLauncher"/>
        </classes>
    </test>
</suite>

and I am looking for a way to cut off the generated test-output folder that TestNG seems to do by default. From http://reportng.uncommons.org/ I can see that

You may also want to disable the default TestNG reporters by setting the useDefaultListeners attribute to "false".

which seems to suit my needs, wouldn't it be the fact that their XML structure seems different than mine.

Does anybody know how to turn the test output files off with TestNG?

Thanks

in Eclipse you could check that option to avoid it: Windows --> Preferences--> TestNG

Disable default listeners

If you are starting tests from command line use –useDefaultListeners false:

java org.testng.TestNG –useDefaultListeners false testng.xml

If you want to do it programmatically:

TestNG testNG = new TestNG();
testNG.setUseDefaultListeners(false);
...

I just clean it afterwards :

<plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-clean-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.4.1</version>
    <configuration>
        <filesets>
            <fileset>
                <directory>test-output</directory>
                <followSymlinks>false</followSymlinks>
            </fileset>
        </filesets>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

Like you said, just use this flag to turn off the default reports. The exact name depends on whether you're using the command line, ant or maven. Look this string up in the documentation that is relevant to you.
