module RSpec
  module Core
    module Bisect
      # A Bisect runner that runs requested subsets of the suite by forking
      # sub-processes. The master process bootstraps RSpec and the application
      # environment (including preloading files specified via `--require`) so
      # that the individual spec runs do not have to re-pay that cost.  Each
      # spec run happens in a forked process, ensuring that the spec files are
      # not loaded in the main process.
      #
      # For most projects, bisections that use `ForkRunner` instead of
      # `ShellRunner` will finish significantly faster, because the `ShellRunner`
      # pays the cost of booting RSpec and the app environment on _every_ run of
      # a subset. In contrast, `ForkRunner` pays that cost only once.
      #
      # However, not all projects can use `ForkRunner`. Obviously, on platforms
      # that do not support forking (e.g. Windows), it cannot be used. In addition,
      # it can cause problems for some projects that put side-effectful spec
      # bootstrapping logic that should run on every spec run directly at the top
      # level in a file loaded by `--require`, rather than in a `before(:suite)`
      # hook. For example, consider a project that relies on some top-level logic
      # in `spec_helper` to boot a Redis server for the test suite, intending the
      # Redis bootstrapping to happen on every spec run. With `ShellRunner`, the
      # bootstrapping logic will happen for each run of any subset of the suite,
      # but for `ForkRunner`, such logic will only get run once, when the
      # `RunDispatcher` boots the application environment. This might cause
      # problems. The solution is for users to move the bootstrapping logic into
      # a `before(:suite)` hook, or use the slower `ShellRunner`.
