  1. RESOURCE_LOCK
  2. -------------
  3. Specify a list of resources that are locked by this test.
  4. If multiple tests specify the same resource lock, they are guaranteed
  5. not to run concurrently.
  6. See also :prop_test:`FIXTURES_REQUIRED` if the resource requires any setup or
  7. cleanup steps.
  8. Both the :prop_test:`RESOURCE_GROUPS` and ``RESOURCE_LOCK`` properties serve
  9. similar purposes, but they are distinct and orthogonal. Resources specified by
  10. :prop_test:`RESOURCE_GROUPS` do not affect ``RESOURCE_LOCK``, and vice versa.
  11. Whereas ``RESOURCE_LOCK`` is a simpler property that is used for locking one
  12. global resource, :prop_test:`RESOURCE_GROUPS` is a more advanced property
  13. that allows multiple tests to simultaneously use multiple resources of the
  14. same type, specifying their requirements in a fine-grained manner.
