Accelerating CI with AWS CodeBuild: Parallel test execution now available

AWS CodeBuild has introduced parallel test execution to run test suites concurrently, reducing build times significantly.
Long test durations can pose challenges for continuous integration, slowing down pipeline execution and causing delays in feature delivery and bug fixes.
Parallel test execution in CodeBuild allows tests to run concurrently across multiple build compute environments, enhancing efficiency.
Test splitting in CodeBuild involves configuring the batch fanout section in buildspec.xml and using codebuild-tests-run utility with selected splitting methods.
Two sharding strategies available are equal-distribution and stability, offering flexibility in distributing tests across shards.
CodeBuild supports automatic merging of test reports, simplifying result analysis by consolidating test summaries into a single report.
To implement parallel testing, users need to configure parallelism levels, test commands, and test splitting methods in the buildspec.yaml file.
Parallel testing works with various testing frameworks such as Django, Elixir, Go, Java, JavaScript, Kotlin, PHPUnit, Ruby, and more.
CodeBuild's parallel test execution accelerates development cycles, is compatible with different testing frameworks, and is available at no additional cost in all AWS Regions.
The feature is compatible with all three compute modes in CodeBuild and can significantly reduce test execution times, enhancing overall team productivity.
