Thanks Sebastien - The threading model should split each functional test ie cloudstackTestCase to go in a different thread. We need to ensure that the API requests inside each test itself goes synchronously because they depend on the respnonses from the prev. request. nosetests with the multiprocess plugin I thought would fix this. For some reason urllib fails when run through this plugin. Guess urllib itself seems to have issues with reentrant code like this. We can replace urllib with something threadsafe and retry the multiprocess plugin too. You could look at asyncJobMgr.py also where some threading implementation exist which could probably be salvaged. -- Prasanna.,
