nkeywal commented on SUREFIRE-799:
----------------------------------
I've been to implement it, it seems to fit well with surefire architecture
(changes are in one file only).
I used to system property to configure the number of parallel process, but I
think this can be changed easily.
> Allow test parallelisation when forkMode=always
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SUREFIRE-799
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-799
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: process forking
> Affects Versions: 2.10
> Environment: all
> Reporter: nkeywal
> Attachments: surefire_799_212_trunk.patch
>
>
> 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.
