I have to run Spring boot integration tests in parallel to reduce the time as they took quite a few minutes right now. When I use maxParallelForks they run in parallel but the issue is since they are Spring boot tests they are setting up the context and due to memory sharing they are failing? I have tried to search online a lot but still unsuccessful to run them in parallel in a separate process, or in a way that they do not share the memory anymore.

Is there any way to do that and yes what would be the best approach to do that?

I am actually searching for running test classes in a separate jvm process so that they do not share the memory. This link suggests to reuse.. – Hitesh Garg Apr 05 '19 at 14:17
Don't you think its too heavy on resources to do that ? – Ali Ben Zarrouk Apr 05 '19 at 14:34
Yes, I agree, but atleast I wanna try so that I can atleast reduce build time on local else I have to wait more than 5 minutes to verify everything is fine on local before pushing every commit in CI CD environment. – Hitesh Garg Apr 05 '19 at 14:40
Could you perhaps provide a [mcve]? – Chriki Apr 07 '19 at 10:30
