Running the TestCases parallely through command promt

Question

Hi,&nbsp;I am looking for an option to execute the test cases in parallel through command prompt. I can see there is an option GUI where we can set the execution as parallel. is there any way to execute in parallel from command prompt ?&nbsp;Thanks a lot in advance.&nbsp;Regards,Shashavali

I believe you would have to toggle that setting in the project via the GUI. It's a setting in the project and how it runs and would have to be set for both the GUI and the cmdline to run it that way.

Shashavali, as groovyguy pointed you can save the project required run type / mode.Of course, you can quickly change that from project xml file as well( in case, modifying thru file, have backup of it), look for value of "runType". Note the below:1. The setting is available at project level and test suite level. i.e., the suites, test cases can be run in parallell mode respectively.2. You should be careful if you are setting  test suite level and you have hundreds of test cases ( meaning more number of cases). Because, it creates as many threads as the number of test cases and your local machine where tests are executed and the application should be capable of handling those many threads.

Thanks&nbsp;nmrao&nbsp;and&nbsp;groovyguy&nbsp;by any chance is any there any option to set the parallel execution (runType=PARALLEL) from command line.&nbsp;Regards,Shashavali

There are no such command line switches according to the documentation. This is a setting that you'll have to toggle via the GUI, or via editing the project XML file directly as&nbsp;nmrao&nbsp;stated. You'll also have to adjust this for every test suite in the project, I believe.
