Function level parallelization #8

Closed SweetVishnya closed 3 years ago

SweetVishnya commented 3 years ago

Is it possible to detect all test functions, split them in chuncks and run each chunk in a separate process? For Linux fork can be used.

Hmmm, after this fix all unittest functions run in parallel even when they are in same class.

SweetVishnya commented 3 years ago

Seems that unittest-parallel 1.2.0 solves my task))) So, I can just:

python -m pip install unittest-parallel==1.2.0

Correct, that will install unittest-parallel globally (alongside python3). If you don't want to install globally, you can install in a venv:

python3 -m venv env
env/bin/pip install unittest-parallel
. env/bin/activate
unittest-parallel -v -t src -s src/tests
deactivate

Alternatively, you can skip activate/deactivate:

env/bin/unitest-parallel -v -t src -s src/tests

My main point was that now your tool runs all functions in one TestCase in parallel.

craigahobbs commented 3 years ago

That is surprising, and you are correct. That's just what Python's unittest.TestLoader.discover method is returning - one TestCase per test method. I've tested this with setUp and tearDown methods, and it all works, so this is a good thing. :)

This change introduced an issue with setUpClass/tearDownClass:
