What does this PR do?
Adds ci-queue support when using Minitest
Additional Notes
ci-queue is a test runner developed and open sourced by Shopify.
It runs Minitest and RSpec (deprecated) test suites in parallel using several workers and coordinating using redis queue.
ci-queue instrumentation for Minitest posed several challenges:
Minitest.extensions
directly which caused ci-queue to fail completelyminitest/datadog_ci_plugin.rb
file it still fails: ci-queue uses minitest-reporters gem that does not correctly work with minitest plugin system. Minitest-reporters gem simply replaces the framework reporters with its own reporters essentially discarding them. Author of minitest framework created an issue in minitest-reporters repository about this problem but it isn't resolved to this dayMinitest::CompositeReporter
class that is not being overwritten by minitest-reporters (yet?)How to test the change?
Unit tests are provided
