No, I ran just this single test. I don't know how Sergey is running the test.

Yep, I know that headless tests are run in parallel, which makes perfect sense.

Yes, I submitted a job with one test only.

At the same time, I didn't look thoroughly into the logs.

This .java file contains four different tests which can be run in parallel, it 
could save the overall time; in the worst case, the same four tests are run 
consecutively. No negative impact, so I support the change.
