Using 5 threads to run postman folders

Question

Is there a way to execute postman folders in parallel in a testng way ?

I have 5 collections, each one contains hundred of tests that are not dependent and use it's own data, so they can be parallalized.

Setting 5 threads can reduce execution time by almost five.

I've seen this Run Postman (or Newman) collection runner iterations in parallel but it doesn't suite me because it doesn't dynamically know how much folder are in each collection

Is there a way to do so with newman ? Or even with external tools ?

Answer 1

You can use newman and GNU Parallel.

The command would look like: parallel --jobs 5 < newman_commands.txt

Where newman_commands.txt would contain the newman commands to run each folder.
