Features of knapsack vs knapsack_pro Ruby gem

Do you use Heroku?

Do you know Knapsack Pro Ruby gem is available as Heroku add-on? It works with your current CI server. https://elements.heroku.com/addons/knapsack-pro

Knapsack Pro has Queue Mode that will split Ruby & JS tests in a dynamic way across parallel CI nodes to ensure each parallel job takes a similar time. Thanks to that there is no bottleneck in your CI pipelines.

See introduction how the Knapsack Pro add-on works https://youtu.be/rmXES2N0_QU
