PHPUnit & Selenium Parallel Tests

https://github.com/eddiejaoude/phpunit-selenium-parallel

Options

1. Standard grid

• Pros: simple.
• Cons: All tests sequential.

2. Ant running groups in parallel (evenly split)

• Pros: easy to setup, does not effect current setup (provided Ant is used as build too), 2 result sets.
• Cons: tests in group run sequentially, as fast as slowest group.

3. Parallel tests (I. /brianium/paratest )

• Pros: runs all tests in parallel.
• Cons: results come back separately.

4. Parallel tests (II. /verkkokauppacom/parallel-phpunit)

• Pros: runs all tests in parallel.
• Cons: results come back separately.
