Parallel Test Execution

As test suites grow, long execution times become a major problem. Parallel execution is a key solution.

Benefits of Running Tests in Parallel

  • Execution time is significantly reduced
  • CI feedback becomes faster
  • Releases can happen more frequently

Tools like Playwright, Selenium Grid, and Cypress Cloud allow tests to run simultaneously across:

  • Multiple browsers
  • Different devices
  • Various environments

Requirements for Reliable Parallel Execution

  • Tests must be independent
  • Shared states must be avoided
  • Test data conflicts must be prevented

Otherwise, parallel runs may introduce additional failures.
