Java class

public class ParaPass {
 @Test
 @Parameters({"name","Sirname","Age"})
 public void test(String name, String lastname, int age)
 { System.out.println(name);
  System.out.println(lastname);
  System.out.println(age);
 }
}

NewFile.xml file

<suite name="paramerProgram">
<test name="newParamer">
<classes>
<class name="NewProgram.ParaPass"/>
</classes>
</test>
</suite>

Parameter passed in goal, see below screen shot.

When we run program from goal, it will read pom.xml and execute “NewFile.xml”file.

And the parameter mentioned in goal will pass to Java class

Out put-
