Is there a way to control how pytest

I have the following directory layout:

runner.py
lib/
tests/
      testsuite1/
                 testsuite1.py
      testsuite2/
                 testsuite2.py
      testsuite3/
                 testsuite3.py
      testsuite4/
                 testsuite4.py

The format of testsuite*.py modules is as follows:

import pytest 
class testsomething:
      def setup_class(self):
          ''' do some setup '''
          # Do some setup stuff here      
      def teardown_class(self):
          '''' do some teardown'''
          # Do some teardown stuff here

      def test1(self):
          # Do some test1 related stuff

      def test2(self):
          # Do some test2 related stuff

      ....
      ....
      ....
      def test40(self):
          # Do some test40 related stuff

if __name__=='__main()__'
   pytest.main(args=[os.path.abspath(__file__)])

The problem I have is that I would like to execute the 'testsuites' in parallel ie I want testsuite1, testsuite2, testsuite3 and testsuite4 to start execution in parallel but individual tests within the testsuites need to be executed serially.

When I use the 'xdist' plugin from py.test and kick off the tests using 'py.test -n 4', py.test is gathering all the tests and randomly load balancing the tests among 4 workers. This leads to the 'setup_class' method to be executed every time of each test within a 'testsuitex.py' module (which defeats my purpose. I want setup_class to be executed only once per class and tests executed serially there after).

Essentially what I want the execution to look like is:

worker1: executes all tests in testsuite1.py serially
worker2: executes all tests in testsuite2.py serially
worker3: executes all tests in testsuite3.py serially
worker4: executes all tests in testsuite4.py serially

while worker1, worker2, worker3 and worker4 are all executed in parallel.

Is there a way to achieve this in 'pytest-xidst' framework?

The only option that I can think of is to kick off different processes to execute each test suite individually within runner.py:


def test_execute_func(testsuite_path):
    subprocess.process('py.test %s' % testsuite_path)

if __name__=='__main__':
   #Gather all the testsuite names
   for each testsuite:
       multiprocessing.Process(test_execute_func,(testsuite_path,))

With pytest-xdist there currently no kind of "per-file" or "per-test-suite" distribution. Actually, if a per-file distribution (eg tests in a file will be only executed by at most one worker at a time) would already help your use case i encourage you to file a feature issue with the pytest issue tracker at https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pytest/issues?status=new&status=open and link back to your good explanation here.
