Overlapping tests

[Mathias Waack]

Hi,

I have some time consuming tests which could (and should) run
simultaneously. Is there a way to achieve this behavior without
using (self-coded) threads? Unittest seems to be designed to run one
test after another, but not to run much tests at the same time.

The only way I can see so far is to start all tests during setUp()
and wait for each test-job in a job specific test() method.

If I understand you correctly, what you really want is one test that
tests the simultaneous executing of multiple tasks - a slighty different
formulation of your problem that suggest a totally different
implementation ;)
