Context
Now that we have re-enabled DB testing with gh-3186, Postgres and MySQL tests are slower, and it is useful to enable some level of parallelism.
Please pay attention to
docs/testing.md
, to ensure the explanations are clear.Results
On my mac M1, this speeds up the tests, from around 13 minutes to under 5 minutes for MySQL.
HSQL-based unit tests are only marginally faster.
Blockers
Blocked by gh-3202 ; as some LDAP tests fail when running in parallel.
