spek v2.0.13 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-09-12 // over 3 years ago

  • 🚀 This release adds several system properties to control how Spek does discovery and execution.

    0️⃣ spek2.discovery.parallel.enabled - controls whether discovery is done in parallel or not, by default it is disabled. The presence of this property regardless of value will enable parallel discovery.

    0️⃣ spek2.execution.parallel.enabled - controls whether execution is done in parallel or not, by default it is disabled. The presence of this property regardless of value will enable parallel execution.

    🚚 spek2.execution.test.timeout - SPEK2_TIMEOUT is now deprecated (will be removed in 2.1.0) and will be replaced by this property. Controls how long a test can run before timing out, by default it is disabled - i.e tests won't timeout.

    A note for parallel execution

    ✅ Parallelism is at a class level not individual test scopes. Spek uses coroutines under the hood to execute tests in parallel, essentially spek2.execution.parallel.enabled just controls which CoroutineDispatcher is used. For parallel executions Dispatchers.Default is used, otherwise the one provided by runBlocking is used.
