Parallel + split working with server, but not regular test

[samselikoff]

I just installed ember-exam on a new project. Running

ember exam -s --split=4 --parallel

works great (4 Chrome instances open up), but running

ember exam --split=4 --parallel

doesn't seem to parallelize anything. Only one browser opens and my tests just run through to completion.

Any ideas on how to diagnose?

Did you add loadEmberExam() to test-helper.js?

See https://github.com/trentmwillis/ember-exam#how-to-use .

Sounds like it is potentially a Testem bug, as the processing that Ember Exam does is the same for both modes. Can't say much more than that unfortunately. A reproduction would be helpful if the issue is still occurring.

@lolmaus yep, and parallelization does work with ember exam -s. Just not ember exam.

The issue was with the parallel flag not being set in testem config. There's a note about this but I missed it. Can I PR the docs to move the note to the top of the "Split" section?

Same happened to me. The installation instructions do need to be grouped in one Readme section and emphasized more.

@samselikoff Looking forward to your edit.

For anyone encounterint this problem, this resolved the problem for me.
#270

ember exam --split=2 --parallel=1 --random just runs
With the parallel set to -1 in testem.
