----------------------------------------
Summary: Implement test bucketing
Key: SUREFIRE-1529
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1529
Project: Maven Surefire
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Maven Surefire Plugin
Affects Versions: 2.22.0
Reporter: Zsombor Gegesy
There are projects, which has hundreds or thousands of test, which took hours
to complete - to paralelize this, it would be good, if tests could be
partitioned automatically into buckets - of course perfect bucketization is not
feasible, due to lack of knowledge of test run times (and it would be a
NP-complete problem even that case).
The idea is to start tests concurrently, in different machines, something like
this:
# mvn test -DnumberOfBuckets=3 -DbucketId=0
# mvn test -DnumberOfBuckets=3 -DbucketId=1
# mvn test -DnumberOfBuckets=3 -DbucketId=2
And the results could be collected and aggregated later by external processes.
The current solution is to manually collect the tests, and generate huge
command lines to do the same.
