HyperExecute has introduced two new features to enhance testing processes: Background Services and Sharding for Espresso. Background Services allow long-running application servers to operate seamlessly during testing, providing a comprehensive solution for end-to-end tests by ensuring essential services like databases, web applications, and messaging apps remain active. This integration supports real-world usage patterns and strengthens testing reliability and performance. Sharding for Espresso, on the other hand, addresses slow test execution by enabling parallel execution, dividing tests into shards that can be run concurrently on multiple devices, thereby significantly reducing testing time. This parallel execution not only speeds up testing but also optimizes resource usage and enhances productivity by allowing faster iteration and feedback cycles. Sharding can be performed manually, where users define shard configurations, or automatically, where the system optimizes test distribution dynamically. Both features are seamlessly integrated into LambdaTest’s HyperExecute platform, ensuring efficient test management and execution.
