Parallelizing tests has a cost in terms of database setup and fixture loading. This change makes Rails disable parallelization when the number of tests is below a configurable threshold. When running tests in parallel each process gets its own database instance. On each execution, each process will update each database schema (if needed) and load all the fixtures. This can be very expensive for non trivial datasets. As an example, for HEY, when running a single file with 18 tests, running tests in parallel in my box adds an overhead of 13 seconds versus not parallelizing them. Of course parallelizing is totally worthy when there are many tests to run, but not when running just a few tests. The threshold is configurable via config.active_support.test_parallelization_minimum_number_of_tests, which is 30 50 by default. This also adds some tracing to know how tests are being executed: When in parallel: ``` Running 2829 tests in parallel in 8 processes ``` When not in parallel: ``` Running 15 tests in a single process (parallelization threshold is 30) ``` |

= Active Support -- Utility classes and Ruby extensions from Rails Active Support is a collection of utility classes and standard library extensions that were found useful for the Rails framework. These additions reside in this package so they can be loaded as needed in Ruby projects outside of Rails. You can read more about the extensions in the {Active Support Core Extensions}[https://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/active_support_core_extensions.html] guide. == Download and installation The latest version of Active Support can be installed with RubyGems: $ gem install activesupport Source code can be downloaded as part of the Rails project on GitHub: * https://github.com/rails/rails/tree/main/activesupport == License Active Support is released under the MIT license: * https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT == Support API documentation is at: * https://api.rubyonrails.org Bug reports for the Ruby on Rails project can be filed here: * https://github.com/rails/rails/issues Feature requests should be discussed on the rails-core mailing list here: * https://discuss.rubyonrails.org/c/rubyonrails-core
