for example:

testing.xml

<suite name="name" parallel="methods" thread-count="5"> 
   <test>
     ...
   </test>
 </suite>

case #1: when I run the following feature file with @smoke tag per say, it will execute parallel testing normally:

something1.feature

@smoke
Feature: <feature message>
   Scenario: <scenario1 message> 
        ...
   Scenario: <scenario2 message>

case#2: when I execute the same scenario using 'Scenario Outlines' is when parallel testing goes concurrently even though the parallel testing configuration is setup in the TestNG xml file.

something2.feature

Feature: <feature message> 
   Scenario Outline: <scenario outline messsage> 
        ... 
      Examples: 
         <data table>

does anybody knows why is this happening with QMETRY framework?

When you are using TestNG, Scenario Outline is converted to TestNG data-driven tests. In TestNG there is separate mechanism for data driven test case parallel execution. QAF provides property global.datadriven.parallel to set parallel behavior for data driven tests. Default value is false. Make sure that you have set it to true in order to run data-driven tests in parallel.

global.datadriven.parallel=true
