66 | 73 | One word of caution: Cargo may run multiple tests concurrently, so make sure

| 74 | +that they don't race with each other. |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | +One example of this concurrency causing issues is if two tests output to a |
| 77 | +file, such as below: |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +```rust |
| 80 | +#[cfg(test)] |
| 81 | +mod tests { |
| 82 | + // Import the necessary modules |
| 83 | + use std::fs::OpenOptions; |
| 84 | + use std::io::Write; |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | + // This test writes to a file |
| 87 | + #[test] |
| 88 | + fn test_file() { |
| 89 | + // Opens the file ferris.txt or creates one if it doesn't exist. |
| 90 | + let mut file = OpenOptions::new() |
| 91 | + .append(true) |
| 92 | + .create(true) |
| 93 | + .open("ferris.txt") |
| 94 | + .expect("Failed to open ferris.txt"); |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | + // Print "Ferris" 5 times. |
| 97 | + for _ in 0..5 { |
| 98 | + file.write_all("Ferris\n".as_bytes()) |
| 99 | + .expect("Could not write to ferris.txt"); |
| 100 | + } |
| 101 | + } |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | + // This test tries to write to the same file |
| 104 | + #[test] |
| 105 | + fn test_file_also() { |
| 106 | + // Opens the file ferris.txt or creates one if it doesn't exist. |
| 107 | + let mut file = OpenOptions::new() |
| 108 | + .append(true) |
| 109 | + .create(true) |
| 110 | + .open("ferris.txt") |
| 111 | + .expect("Failed to open ferris.txt"); |
| 112 | + |
| 113 | + // Print "Corro" 5 times. |
| 114 | + for _ in 0..5 { |
| 115 | + file.write_all("Corro\n".as_bytes()) |
| 116 | + .expect("Could not write to ferris.txt"); |
| 117 | + } |
| 118 | + } |
| 119 | +} |
| 120 | +``` |
| 121 | + |
| 122 | +Although the intent is to get the following: |
| 123 | +``` |
| 124 | +Ferris |
| 125 | +Ferris |
| 126 | +Ferris |
| 127 | +Ferris |
| 128 | +Ferris |

| 131 | +Corro |
| 132 | +Corro |
| 133 | +Corro |
| 134 | +``` |
| 135 | +What actually gets put into `ferris.txt` is this: |
| 136 | +``` |
| 137 | +Corro |
| 138 | +Ferris |
| 139 | +Corro |
| 140 | +Ferris |
| 141 | +Corro |
