Test dependencies is probably the biggest one. Tests grouping (easier in TestNG)
Parameterized Tests (easier in TestNG, although I haven't used this one yet, but I have several junit3 tests that try to do similar things) Lots of small things, like not requiring static methods in TestNG for certain kinds of setup.
