I also think that the API tests could be changed easily to run in
parallel on one machine, something that is important if you see the
growing use of multi core CPUs.

The test tool and its infrastructure make this hard to achieve. The
office to test can be set up to run with more than one instance in
parallel but applying the same tricks to the test tool would mean that
it can't use any persistent configuration data.

Would it be possible to run the test tool without any write access to
persistent data (ini files and the like) and always get all necessary
information by command line or bootstrapping? Then it basically should
be possible to run more than one instance of the test tool at the same
time on one machine for one user.

Ciao,
Mathias
