Execution options¶

Execution options determine how tests are run by Chainsaw.

Supported elements¶

Element	Default	Description
`failFast`	`false`	FailFast determines whether the test should stop upon encountering the first failure.
`parallel`	`auto`	The maximum number of tests to run at once.
`repeatCount`	`1`	RepeatCount indicates how many times the tests should be executed.
`forceTerminationGracePeriod`		ForceTerminationGracePeriod forces the termination grace period on pods, statefulsets, daemonsets and deployments.

Termination grace period¶

Some Kubernetes resources can take time before being terminated. For example, deleting a pod can take time if the underlying container doesn't quit quickly enough.

Chainsaw can override the grace period for the following resource kinds:

Pod
Deployment
StatefulSet
DaemonSet
Job
CronJob
