🔀Run Tests in Parallel

Simple CLI

Pylenium comes with pytest and the pytest-xdist plugin to run tests concurrently. All you need to do is use the -n [NUMBER] option when running the tests in the CLI.

Terminal

# run two tests in parallel
pytest tests -n 2

Pylenium is already designed to scale in parallel with or without containers

Configure the IDE

Most IDEs will allow you to configure your Test File or Test Run with additional arguments.

For example, in PyCharm, you can:

• Open Run in the Top Menu

• Select Edit Configurations

• Then add -n 2 to the Additional Arguments field

That allows you to Run and Debug tests while still having 2 run at a time
