Abstract
Annotations associated with test cases written to test a software application can allow related test cases to be dynamically distributed among different sets of test cases that can be executed simultaneously in different parallel threads, thereby speeding up testing relative to executing the test cases sequentially in a single thread. The annotations can also allow test cases to be identified that are relevant to code changes, such that testing times can be further reduced by executing a subset of test cases relevant to code changes instead of a full set of test cases.
