Hi again,
I was doing some research to see if there is any way to improve smoker
performance by using parallelism. I found this article on
http://modernperlbooks.com/mt/2011/11/parallelism-and-test-suites.html that
discuss some issues when trying to do something like that.
Interesting as is, is there any feature to mark the tests results from a
distribution that was executed with parallelism? That could help the authors to
identify issues with their tests when running with parallelism. Maybe we could
even mark (in Metacpan) the distribution as capable to be tested with
parallelism.
Or maybe the distribution author could explicit ask to not test the
distribution with parallelism.
Anyway, I just brainstorming here, no patches available right now. :-)
Regards,
Alceu
