The problem

bun run test spawns bun test --isolate ./tests/. With --isolate and no --parallel, Bun re-evaluates the module graph once per file on a single core. Past ~900 files that stops looking slow and starts looking hung.

Measured on this tree (902 test files):

result
without --parallel 1 h 29 m, zero output, ~57 % CPU, 8.5 MB RSS — killed, never finished
with --parallel ~110–190 s (10x PARALLEL)

The failure mode is what makes this worth fixing rather than documenting: no progress output, one core pinned, RSS tiny. It reads as a deadlock, and the reasonable conclusion for someone new to the repo is that the test suite is broken. I hit this on a fresh worktree and spent the first hour and a half assuming the suite was simply large.

The stale "normally runs in about 210s" warning is updated for the same reason — that figure predates the file count that made the flag necessary.

Why it is pinned by tests

resolveBunTestArgs is exported and covered so the flag cannot be dropped again silently, including the two cases that are easiest to regress:

  • a caller-supplied --parallel=N must not be overridden;
  • an option-only argv such as --timeout=30000 must still count as a full-suite run and keep ./tests/ (otherwise it is misread as a focused run and silently tests nothing).

Scope

This is deliberately the smallest change that makes the suite runnable. Two adjacent changes are left out and will be proposed separately, because they are behavior/policy decisions rather than a fix:

  • narrowing the exclusive-run lock to full-suite runs — reasonable (a focused run should not queue behind an 800-file isolate run), but the lock guards CPU contention rather than state, and --parallel makes a full run saturate the machine, so letting focused runs start alongside it is a trade-off that deserves its own discussion;
  • a test:changed script plus the contributing-guide updates that go with it, which changes when contributors are expected to run the full suite.

Gate

bun test --isolate --parallel ./tests/14436 pass / 2 fail. Both failures also occur on untouched upstream/dev at this commit (baseline: 4 fail, a superset). Zero regressions.

Reported as a set difference against a baseline rather than an absolute count, because the suite is not currently stable at full-suite scale.

Not addressed here

tests/key-login-live-update.test.ts fails standalone and serially on a clean tree — verified by running that one file alone with no parallelism. Every full run is therefore red by at least one test regardless of this change. Worth its own fix, since a permanently red suite hides real regressions.

I could not establish whether the remaining intermittent full-suite failures are caused by --parallel itself: proving that needs a serial full-suite run for comparison, which is exactly the run that does not finish. What is established is that the four files involved pass standalone and together, serial and parallel (6/6 green, 157 tests) — so they are not individually broken. Note also that the suite was not runnable at all before this change, so --parallel cannot be said to have destabilised a previously stable suite.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores

    • Improved test command execution with isolated, parallel runs by default.
    • Unfiltered test runs now target the standard test suite automatically.
    • Existing file filters and custom concurrency settings are preserved.
    • Updated slow-suite messaging to reflect parallel execution.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for default options, filters, custom concurrency, and option-only test runs.
    • Documented parallel execution configuration for test commands.

…ing as hung

`bun run test` spawned `bun test --isolate ./tests/`. With `--isolate` and no
`--parallel`, Bun re-evaluates the module graph once per file on a single core.
Past ~900 files that stops looking slow and starts looking hung.

Measured on this tree (902 files):

  without --parallel   1 h 29 m, zero output, ~57 % CPU, 8.5 MB RSS, killed

Note on scope: this is the smallest change that makes the suite runnable. Two
adjacent changes are deliberately left out and will be proposed separately —
narrowing the exclusive-run lock to full-suite runs (a behavior change that lets
two focused runs share one sandboxed HOME), and a `test:changed` script with the
contributing-guide updates that go with it.

Separately and not addressed here: `tests/key-login-live-update.test.ts` fails
standalone and serially on a clean tree, so every full run is red by at least one

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The test runner centralizes Bun test argument construction. It adds default isolation and parallel execution, preserves caller options, targets ./tests/ for full-suite runs, and validates these behaviors with unit and integration tests.

Changes

Bun test argument resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Resolve and apply Bun test arguments
scripts/test.ts, bunfig.toml
resolveBunTestArgs adds --isolate, defaults to --parallel, preserves filters and concurrency settings, and appends ./tests/ for filter-less runs. The subprocess uses the resolver. The warning now references parallel execution.
Validate argument resolution
tests/test-runner.test.ts
Tests cover full-suite runs, file filters, explicit concurrency, option-only arguments, arguments after --, and parallel execution through the wrapper.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 90a34

The test command can silently skip the full test suite when Bun’s separated-value --timings option is used, because its value may be mistaken for a test filter. The PR is otherwise mergeable, but this argument-handling case should be fixed or explicitly accepted by the owner.

Two review findings. hasCliFlag/isFullSuiteRun read the whole argv, so
`test -- --parallel=2` suppressed the default --parallel even though everything
after -- is passed through, and a bare - was classified as an option so
`test -` was treated as a full-suite run.

The tests also asserted only resolveBunTestArgs output: reverting the spawn call
to a hardcoded argv left every assertion green. A spawn test now runs the wrapper
against a non-matching filter and asserts bun reports PARALLEL.

Updated after review — two findings, both real.

Argv classification was wrong for two shapes. hasCliFlag / isFullSuiteRun read the whole argv, so bun run test -- --parallel=2 saw --parallel=2 and suppressed the default --parallel, even though everything after -- is passed through rather than interpreted as this wrapper's flags. And a bare - was excluded from the positional check, so bun run test - was classified as a full-suite run. Both now parse the -- delimiter, and a bare - counts as a filter.

The tests could not catch the regression they exist for. They asserted only resolveBunTestArgs output — reverting the actual spawn call to a hardcoded argv left every assertion green. A spawn test now runs the wrapper against a non-matching filter and asserts bun reports PARALLEL, using the repo's existing OCX_TEST_NO_QUEUE=1 escape hatch so it does not queue.

Gate: 14437 pass / 3 fail, all in the load-sensitive CL-07 task effectiveness family; interleaved runs against untouched upstream/dev fail in both directions under the same load, so no regression.

Two CodeRabbit findings, plus a regression the first attempt introduced.

isFullSuiteRun read a space-separated option value as a file filter, so
`bun run test --timeout 30000` silently stopped being a full-suite run and
dropped ./tests/. Bun 1.4.0 accepts that form.

The first fix over-corrected: treating every value-taking option as consuming
the next argument swallowed the filter in ["--parallel", "tests/foo.test.ts"],
so a focused run became a full-suite run — worse than the original bug, and
silent. --parallel, --changed, --timings and --coverage take OPTIONAL values,
which Bun expects attached with =.

Now only required-value options consume the next argument, and all six boundary
shapes are pinned as tests.

The spawn test also asserted only that the output contained PARALLEL, so it
could pass after a nonzero wrapper exit; it now asserts exitCode 0 first, against
a real fixture file so a successful run is meaningful.

Both CodeRabbit findings addressed — and the first attempt at the argv one introduced a worse regression, so this is worth spelling out.

Space-separated option values. isFullSuiteRun(["--timeout", "30000"]) read 30000 as a file filter and dropped ./tests/, so bun run test --timeout 30000 silently stopped being a full-suite run.

The over-correction. Treating every value-taking option as consuming the next argument then swallowed the filter in ["--parallel", "tests/foo.test.ts"] — a focused run became a full-suite run. Worse than the original bug and equally silent; you would just notice it was slow. --parallel, --changed, --timings and --coverage take optional values, which Bun expects attached with =.

Only required-value options consume the next argument now. All six boundary shapes are pinned as tests and were verified by running the resolver directly:

argv ./tests/ appended
["--parallel", "tests/foo.test.ts"] no
["--parallel"] yes
["--parallel=2", "tests/foo.test.ts"] no
["--timeout", "30000"] yes
["--timeout", "30000", "tests/foo.test.ts"] no
["-t", "serial test"] yes

The spawn test could pass after a failed run. It asserted only that the output contained PARALLEL, which a wrapper that emits that text and then exits nonzero would satisfy. It now asserts exitCode === 0 first, against a real fixture file so a successful run is meaningful.

Gate: 14438 pass / 2 fail, both inside the repo's load-sensitive flaky pool (built from five base runs on untouched upstream/dev, whose own failure count ranged 2–16). Zero failures outside that pool.

Bun 1.4.0 bun test --timings option separated value CLI documentation

💡 Result:

In Bun, the --timings CLI option is used to record and utilize the execution duration of test files to optimize test sharding and parallel execution [1][2]. It allows Bun to balance test workloads based on time rather than file count, preventing scenarios where one shard is disproportionately slower than others [1][3]. Key details regarding the --timings option: Usage: You can specify a path to a JSON file to read or write timing data, such as --timings=.bun-test-timings.json [1][2]. Recording Data: Use the --update-timings flag in conjunction with --timings to record or update the execution durations of test files after a run [1][2]. Balancing: When --timings is provided, Bun uses the recorded durations to divide test files into shards so that each shard has a similar total execution time [1][3]. Under --parallel, Bun also uses these timings to schedule the slowest files first, improving overall throughput [1][2]. Multiple Files: You can pass --timings multiple times to read from several files, which is useful in CI environments where different shards generate separate timing reports [1][2]. Data Format: The timing data is stored in a JSON file where keys are file paths (relative to the project root) and values are the wall-clock milliseconds required to execute the test file [1][2]. This functionality is particularly beneficial for large test suites in CI/CD pipelines, as it allows for efficient, time-balanced distribution of tests across multiple runners [1][4].

🌐 Web query:

site:github.com/oven-sh/bun "timings" "parse" "TestCommand" Bun

💡 Result:

In the context of the Bun runtime, TestCommand is an internal CLI component used to handle the bun test command [1][2]. The term timings does not refer to a standalone public command or flag, but rather relates to how the test runner generates performance data and handles execution duration during the test lifecycle [3]. There is no public-facing timings parse command. The timing information generated by bun test is part of the internal test reporting and cleanup process [3]. Specifically, when tests complete or bail (e.g., via the --bail flag), the Bun test runner writes summary and timing data as part of its teardown sequence, which may include formats like JUnit [3]. Key technical points regarding TestCommand and timing: - TestCommand serves as the primary entry point for the bun test subcommand, managing test discovery, execution options (such as --timeout and --parallel), and lifecycle management [4][5][2]. - Internal test execution involves managing the event loop to ensure timers and asynchronous tasks are properly accounted for before a test file finishes [6]. - Timing data is often managed internally by the runner and outputted as part of reporter formats (like JUnit) rather than parsed through a separate CLI utility [4][3]. If you are encountering errors or unexpected behavior related to timings, it is likely tied to internal state handling, such as fake timers (jest.useFakeTimers()) or event loop drainage, which are managed within TestCommand::run [6][7].

💡 Result:

The --update-timings flag is a feature of the Bun test runner, used in conjunction with the --timings flag to optimize test parallelization [1]. When running tests, passing --timings=<file_path> and --update-timings instructs Bun to record the duration of each test file execution into a specified JSON file [1]. This data allows Bun to balance test shards more effectively by distributing tests based on their actual duration rather than just the number of files, preventing scenarios where a single shard receives all of the slowest tests [1]. Key behaviors include: - Without the --shard flag, --update-timings merges new timing data into the existing file, refreshing entries for files that were run while retaining previous data for other files [1]. - When using --shard, --update-timings only updates the records for the specific files executed within that shard [1]. - The resulting JSON file lists test files and their execution times in milliseconds, which Bun later uses to distribute workloads across workers more efficiently [1].

Bun 1.4.0 "--timings=" "--timings" bun test

💡 Result:

In Bun 1.4.0, the --timings flag for bun test is used to read and write per-file test execution durations to balance test shards by total time rather than file count [1][2]. Key details regarding the use of --timings: Functionality: By providing a path to a JSON file via --timings, you allow Bun to record how long each test file takes to run [1][2]. When used with --shard, this enables Bun to cut shards based on total expected duration, which is more accurate than dividing by file count [1][2]. When used with --parallel, the coordinator uses these durations to cut worker chunks by time, and each worker is instructed to start its slowest file first [1][2]. Usage: 1. To record durations, you can use: bun test --timings=.bun-test-timings.json --update-timings [1][2] 2. To use the recorded timings, you can include the flag: bun test --shard=2/8 --parallel --timings=.bun-test-timings.json [1][2] Important Notes: - Multiple --timings flags can be passed; Bun will read them as one merged table [1][2]. - When --update-timings is used, the results are written to the first path provided in the --timings argument [1][2]. - Durations are stored as wall-clock milliseconds for the entire file [1][2]. - Files without a pre-existing entry in the timings file are assumed to have a median duration [1][2]. - If --shard is used, --update-timings will only write data for the files that specific shard executed [1][2]. This functionality is designed to optimize CI performance by keeping execution times balanced across shards and workers while maintaining locality for module caching [3][1][2].

github oven-sh/bun src cli Arguments.zig timings update-timings

💡 Result:

The --update-timings flag is a feature of the Bun test runner, used to automatically record and update the execution durations of test files [1]. This flag is typically used in conjunction with parallel test execution, where Bun shards tests across multiple processes [1]. Each shard writes the duration of the files it executes, and these timings are then used in subsequent runs to optimize test distribution, ensuring a more balanced workload [1]. While Arguments.zig in the Bun source code defines various CLI arguments and parameters [2][3], the --update-timings flag specifically relates to the test runner's configuration and logic [4][1]. As of recent updates, Bun is undergoing a transition from Zig to Rust [5], but historically, the CLI argument parsing and test command logic have been managed within the Zig-based codebase [3][4][6]. To use --update-timings in a CI/CD environment (such as GitHub Actions), you typically provide a path where timing data should be stored or read from, often using the --timings flag to specify paths for timing files [1]. This helps Bun maintain a consistent and efficient testing performance across runs [1].

Add --timings to BUN_TEST_OPTIONS_REQUIRING_VALUES.

In scripts/test.ts:71-138, add "--timings" after "--shard". Bun 1.4.0 accepts --timings <STR>.... Without this entry, isFullSuiteRun treats .bun-test-timings/current.json as a test filter and omits ./tests/.

Add a regression assertion in tests/test-runner.test.ts for the separated-value form.

The --parallel direction is useful and the focused test-runner suite passes on the current head, but one Bun 1.4.0 argv boundary is still incomplete.

scripts/test.ts does not include --timings in BUN_TEST_OPTIONS_REQUIRING_VALUES. The repository and CI resolve Bun 1.4.0 from package.json, and Bun 1.4.0 declares --timings <STR>.... Therefore resolveBunTestArgs(["--timings", ".bun-test-timings/current.json"]) currently returns --isolate --parallel --timings .bun-test-timings/current.json without ./tests/: the timing file is misclassified as a positional test filter, so the wrapper can silently run no repository suite.

Please add --timings to the required-value set and add a separated-value regression alongside the existing --timeout case. Re-run tests/test-runner.test.ts on the updated exact head. I do not think the PR needs broader lock-policy or test:changed expansion; this is only completing the argv grammar the new resolver owns.
