Kristian Rosenvold commented on SUREFIRE-751:
---------------------------------------------
If we ever get to support full symmetry of options (i.e. forkMode=perthread,
parallel=classes, threadCount=2 we'd probably have to add a forkCount option
too.)
@andreas I'll look at your doc pull request "soon"; i have a feeling 2.13.1 is
not too far off.
(With a ".13" version number I suppose that's just to be expected)

> The current parallel execution spawns one thread _per_class_
> When there is a large disparity between the number of tests in different
> classes, this can result in a longer execution time. This can often happen in
> GUI testing, where a couple of classes will contain a lot of long running
> (but low cpu) test cases, and the remaining classes run fast.
> See http://maven-junit-plugin.kenai.com/ for an attempt at solving this
