#### CLI
#### Test Framework

- The test framework now supports the parallel execution of tests as an experimental feature. To enable parallel test execution, simply use the `--parallel` flag with the `bal test` command.

```bash
$ bal test --parallel
```

- APIs for mocking client resource methods is introduced. With these, a client resource can be stubbed to behave in a certain way. Previously, test doubles had to be used to mock client resource methods.

```ballerina
// Sample HTTP Client call

http:Client jokes = check new ("https://api.chucknorris.io/jokes/");
json joke = check jokes->/random;
```

## Ballerina packages updates

### New features

- Build tools can now be seamlessly integrated into the package build. This enhancement allows authors of tools managed by the `bal tool` command to expand the tool functionality, supporting direct integration into the package build. With Update 9, platform-provided tools such as the OpenAPI and Persist tools include automation capabilities for generating clients during the package build itself by specifying these tools in the `Ballerina.toml` file.

```toml
[[tool.openapi]]
id = "generate-delivery-client"
filePath = "delivery.yml"
options.mode = "client"
```
azinneera marked this conversation as resolved.

### Improvements

- The `provided` scope has been introduced for platform dependencies to prevent a certain platform library from being included in the BALA file. This scope is particularly useful when the license of the provider restricts the redistribution of the platform library.

```toml
[[platform.java11.dependency]]
# Group ID of the Maven dependency.
groupId = "<group-id>"
# Artifact ID of the Maven dependency.
artifactId = "<artifact-id>"
# Version of the Maven dependency.
version = "<version>"
# Scope of the dependency.
scope = "provided"
```

- With Update 9, diagnostics issued by the dependency packages are hidden by default. These diagnostics can be printed to the console by passing the `--show-dependency-diagnostics` build option to the CLI command.
