I've set up my project to use XCTest and run a suite of unit and integration tests. The problem is that I can only run a single instance of the iOS Simulator at a time, so in order to parallelize my suite of tests, I have to run multiple machines and run multiple VMs on each machine. It would be a huge win for developers and QA to have the ability to run multiple instances of the iOS Simulator simultaneously!

Steps to Reproduce:
Run `xcodebuild ... clean test` and wait for all tests to run in a serial, way.

Expected Results:
Test can be run in parallel with each other in multiple instances of the iOS simulator

Actual Results:
Tests run serially.

Version:
All versions of Xcode/iOS
