- Explain Data-driven Testing.
Data-driven is a test automation framework approach, where input test data is stored in tabular format or in a spreadsheet format and a single test script reads each row of the data, which can be a unique test case, and executes the steps. This enables reuse of test scripts and increases test coverage with varied test data combinations.

- Explain the DataProvider method in TestNG.
The DataProvider method in TestNG is a special method annotated with the @DataProvider annotation. It returns an array of objects. We can return tabular data reading from any format such as CSV or Excel to test the test case using the data provider.
