[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1709) Parallelize Tests

["Jason Rutherglen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1709?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12723810#action_12723810 ] 

Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-1709:
------------------------------------------

Given my limited understanding of ANT, it seems like it would be
ideal long term to be able to set a the numThreads on JUnitTask
which underneath executes the tests in BatchTest in parallel.

I'm not sure how to hack Parallel and JUnitTask together in the
ANT XML. 

If it's possible for JUnit to somehow return Tasks up the chain
to Parallel, that might work?

> I'd love to see a clean solution here (the tests are embarrassingly
> parallelizable, and we all have machines with good concurrency these
> days)... I have a rather hacked up solution now, that uses
> "-Dtestpackage=XXX" to split the tests up.
> Ideally I would be able to say "use N threads" and it'd do the right
> thing... like the -j flag to make.
