There is a beta ctest -j N functionality in CVS.
Great! Does 'N' instruct it to run 'N' tests in parallel?
Yes.
Any plans to go even further? It's hard to choose 'N'. Some test may
create many threads and some may create none. Perhaps a way for tests
to report to ctest how many cores they need. Then ctest would have more
info to decide how many/which tests to run at the same time.
Yes, the idea would be to set a test property on the test that gave the
test an N as well that could be taken into consideration when running
the test.
