This can speed up local test runtimes by 15% to 50%. Also this makes it easier
to rerun only a part of the test suite.

Fixes #5755.

The same issue may also affect travis and appveyor builds, and this doesn't
address them.

We can revert this change once pytest is able to parallelize tests efficiently without help.
