Parallel Tests

[Suresh]

Hi

Is it possible to have methods of one <test> run sequentially while
the methods of other <test> run parallely

For example

<suite name="MySuite" parallel="methods" thread-count="10">

<test name="test1" parallel="methods" thread-count="5">
<classes>
<class name="MyTest"/>
</classes>
</test>

<test name="test2">
<classes>
<class name="MyTest2"/>
</classes>
</test>

<test name="test3" parallel="methods" thread-count="4">
<classes>
<class name="MyTest3"/>
</classes>
</test>

</suite>

In the above case I would like methods of test1 and test3 to be run in
parallel, while the methods of test2 to be run sequentially in a
separate thread. Please let me know if there is a better way to
achieve the same objective.

Try to set the parallel setting at the suite level to "tests":

  <suite name="MySuite" parallel="tests" thread-count="10">

This will cause all of your <test> to run in their own thread, but since you override it to "methods" in test1 and test3, these two should run each method in their own thread.

Thanks Cedric for the quick response. It worked.

I just need to make sure I give threadpoolsize in <test1> and <test3> to make it run in parallel. Otherwise it runs them in single thread if I have tests with invocationcount > 1
