The pytest-xdist_ plugin extends pytest with new test execution modes, the most used being distributing tests across multiple CPUs to speed up test execution::

pytest -n auto

With this call, pytest will spawn a number of workers processes equal to the number of available CPUs, and distribute the tests randomly across them.
