What's in this pull request?
This test enables parallel execution of tests, to significantly speed up total testing time for long-running tests.
Why merge this pull request?
For the Trill test suite, it cuts the time it takes to run the test suite by a huge margin. I figured parallelism was the next step for this, as it becomes very important as a large number of tests are added.
What's worth discussing about this pull request?
The general algorithm for splitting execution of tests among workers, the switch to ShellOut instead of SwiftShell
What downsides are there to merging this pull request?
Test results are no longer in sorted order when parallelism is enabled.
