Allow test parallelisation when forkMode=always
-----------------------------------------------
Key: SUREFIRE-799
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-799
Project: Maven Surefire
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Junit 4.7+ (parallel) support
Affects Versions: 2.10
Environment: all
Reporter: nkeywal
Surefire already allows:
- forking
- parallelization within a JVM
Mixing both features would mean forking multiple JVM instead of only one.
It would allow to parallelize tests that need to be executed in a separate JVM
(i.e.: with forkMode=always). Usually these tests take longer than the simple
ones. In our case, 40% of the tests are executed in 4 minutes, the other 60%
need two hours. So it's obviously more interesting to parallelize the former,
but these ones need to fork.
