Description

A data-driven test covering an xrange of 1 million numbers generates 1 million xUnit XML reports.
This brings most tooling to a crawl, in particular Jenkins.

Each data point should not generate a new test case.
The documentation suggests that this should scale well and that it is valid to make tests like this.
