If your tests are written in Python, you could consider using py.test and the 
xdist plugin to spread the work among multiple machines.

Other languages have other techniques for test discovery and test distribution, 
but as Sami said, the test distribution needs to know more about your tests 
than I suspect can be reasonably captured in a general purpose plugin.
