Description

We should allow parallel execution of tests. There are two flavors to this:

(a) tests are run in parallel in the same process, or
(b) tests are run in parallel with separate processes (e.g., with gtest-parallel).

While (a) likely has overall better performance, it depends on tests being independent of global state (e.g., current directory, and others). On the other hand, already (b) improves execution time, and has much smaller requirements.

This epic tracks efforts to fix test to allow scenario (b) above.
