What is Knapsack Pro?
Knapsack Pro is designed to optimize and accelerate continuous integration (CI) test suites by intelligently splitting and distributing tests across multiple CI nodes. By using dynamic test allocation, Knapsack Pro ensures that all nodes complete their work simultaneously, eliminating bottlenecks that typically slow down CI processes.
The platform supports a wide range of test runners and programming languages, making it versatile for modern development teams. With additional features like automatic fallback modes for network interruptions and granular test splitting, Knapsack Pro helps teams save significant time and resources, ultimately enabling faster delivery of new features and rapid feedback cycles.
Features
- Queue Mode: Dynamically allocates tests across parallel CI nodes to minimize build times.
- Fallback Mode: Auto-switches to fallback mode when the API is unreachable, maintaining workflow continuity.
- Automatic Test Example Splitting: Splits slow test files by individual test examples for granular parallelization.
- Broad Language & Test Runner Support: Compatible with Ruby (RSpec, Cucumber, Minitest), JavaScript (Cypress, Jest, Vitest), and other languages.
- Native API Integration: Allows integration with any programming language or test runner via API.
- Risk-free Integration: Functions as a wrapper without needing repository access.
- Comprehensive Documentation: Includes installation guides and CI integration resources.
Use Cases
- Accelerating CI pipeline test execution in software development projects.
- Optimizing parallel test distribution for large teams and enterprise environments.
- Reducing time-to-feedback during continuous integration builds.
- Balancing workloads across CI nodes for consistent test durations.
- Ensuring efficient test runs even during network interruptions.
