Problem
Running the unit tests takes quite long time, we should run the tests in parallel to speed it up. We already use that solution in the yast2-storage-ng package.
Todo
require
Storage::LockException
problem (according to @imobachgs we should run the storage related tests in one process, the other option would be to mock the storage calls).spec
file (like here)Note: the
Storage::LockException
happens only with more parallel processes (16), Travis uses just 2 CPUs so it does not happen there, the affected tests coincidentally run in the same process.Results
