Abstract

Test cases written to test a software application can be dynamically distributed among a set of software application instances such that different sets of test cases can execute simultaneously in parallel, thereby speeding up testing relative to executing the test cases sequentially. To avoid database conflicts that may occur when different test cases are executed in parallel, each software application instance can be associated with a different database instance. Accordingly, a first test case executing in association with a first database instance can avoid interfering with a second test case executing in association with a second database instance.
