Hey folks, question regarding tests. In this current PR, I'm adding unit tests where each tests takes ~6 seconds due to exponential backoff. When running

:internal:venice-common:test --tests "com.linkedin.venice.utils.TestHelixUtils"

, the tests run sequentially, which takes some time. I was wondering if you knew of any way to run multiple tests in parallel. I remember that

./gradlew check --continue

would spawn x threads when running the full suite, and thought perhaps I would be able to do the same thing here, or similar. Thanks! EDIT: it doesn't actually take that long, but thought it might be helpful to know in the future.

Try adding the

--parallel

flag.

Certainly try but probably don’t commit that 😅 … Gradle’s

—parallel

caused lots of instability last time I tried it.

So

--parallel

does work, but indeed the behavior seems kind of shaky (only logs one test at a time, and only updates in Intellij how many tests have passed when a new test starts, so it sometimes makes jumps from 6 -> 7 or 9 -> 12 for example).
