Accelerating Continuous Integration with Parallel Batch Testing
Emad Fallahzadeh, Amir Hossein Bavand, Peter C. Rigby · 2023
Continuous integration at scale is costly but essential to software development. Various test optimization techniques including test selection and prioritization aim to reduce the cost. Test batching is an effective alternative, but overlooked technique. This study evaluates parallelization’s effect by adjusting machine count for test batching and introduces two novel approaches.
