Run junit test in parallel with surefire maven plugin

It is posible to configure surefire plugin to only run some test in parallel and others in sequence?

Also can surefire forkCount be used to run parallel tests declared into a jUnit Suite?

You can add this to the configuration of the maven-surefire-plugin in the pom.xml file.

<configuration>
    <parallel>all</parallel>
    <threadCount>10</threadCount>
    <threadCountSuites>2</threadCountSuites>
    <threadCountClasses>2</threadCountClasses>
    <threadCountMethods>6</threadCountMethods>
    <parallelTestTimeoutInSeconds>3.5</parallelTestTimeoutInSeconds>
    <parallelTestTimeoutForcedInSeconds>5</parallelTestTimeoutForcedInSeconds>
    <perCoreThreadCount>true</perCoreThreadCount>
    <includes>
        <include>**/FunctionTestSuite.java</include>
    </includes>
</configuration>

A detailed explanation can be found at this link. It gives a complete description step by step to run JUnit tests parallel with surefire-maven-plugin.

Note: This code snippet shows all the available options. You can change or remove some options as per your need!

A very easy way to do this is as follows:

  • Move sequential tests each into its own test suite in junit
  • Move parallel tests all into the same suite.
  • Set Parallel to "classes"

configuration>
					<includes>
						<include>**/A01TestSuite.java</include>
						<include>**/A02ServiceTestSuite.java</include>
						<include>**/A03FlowTestSuite.java</include>
					</includes>
					<additionalClasspathElements>
						<additionalClasspathElement>${webinf.dir}</additionalClasspathElement>
					</additionalClasspathElements>
					<systemPropertyVariables>
						<log4j.configuration>file:${l4j.test}/log4j.test.properties</log4j.configuration>
					</systemPropertyVariables>
					<forkMode>always</forkMode>
					<argLine>-Xms512m -Xmx512m</argLine>
					<parallel>classes</parallel>
					<threadCount>10</threadCount>

				</configuration>

You can use separate maven profiles with two different surefire plugin configurations.
