Description
There's a pytest-xdist library that we could probably use to parallelize the tests.
There's probably zero benefit to running it like this on staging/production; a cheap VPS isn't going to have multiple cores, but could certainly speed up local test runs.
Not sure if I like the idea of ignoring jenkins and manually running full regression suites vs staging locally, but it sounds like a cool library to learn about, and "I'm not paying for multiple cores on my hobby project" isn't a great reason to ignore it.
