Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2349:
-------------------------------------

bq. But will a core test and it's backwards version conflict? Or we use 
different subdir for backwards?

it appears they use different directories, but this doesn't matter anyway.
parallelization is only within a single "batch": e.g. core, a single contrib, 
or backwards.
the testing process is still sequential:
 * run core tests in parallel
 * for each contrib in sequential order, run its tests in parallel
 * run backwards tests in parallel

> Tests should use unique temporary directories

> We cannot safely use parallel tests (LUCENE-1709) because some test classes 
> try to use temporary directories with the same name.
> So if these two happen to run at the same time, they conflict.
> For example TestIndexReader has code like this:
> {code}
> File dirFile = new File(TEMP_DIR, "testIndex");
> {code}
> But TestCompoundFile has similar code:
> {code}
> File file = new File(TEMP_DIR, "testIndex");
> {code}
> If both these classes run at the same time, there will be problems.
> If we want to use parallel tests safely, we have to fix this use of the 
> static TEMP_DIR which does not include any unique name of the test.
> Ideally we can do this without changing a lot of test code, especially 
> backwards.
