Does Pants have any native support for parallelizing tests across machines or Github Action workflows/jobs? There are too many tests in our monorepo to run sequentially (especially for pull requests that touch the common shared libraries). I'm wondering if we can even use the

pants test

goal for this or if we have to build our own parallelization logic based on the outputs from

pants dependencies

...

I haven't used it myself, but the

test

goal has an option for sharding your tests: https://www.pantsbuild.org/stable/reference/goals/test#shard

Oh, nice, thanks!

Yes, so one cheap-and-easy way to do this in CI is to shard the tests and run all shards concurrently on multiple workers. Pants’s own CI does this.
