+# Custom Pool
+
+::: warning
+This is advanced API. If you are just running tests, you probably don't need this. It is primarily used by library authors.
+:::
+
+Vitest runs tests in pools. By default, there are several pools:
+
+- `threads` to run tests using `node:worker_threads` (isolation is provided with a new worker context)
+- `forks` to run tests using `node:child_process` (isolation is provided with a new `child_process.fork` process)
+- `vmThreads` to run tests using `node:worker_threads` (but isolation is provided with `vm` module instead of a new worker context)
+- `browser` to run tests using browser providers
+- `typescript` to run typechecking on tests
+
+You can provide your own pool by specifying a file path:
+
+```ts
+export default defineConfig({
+  test: {
+    // will run every file with a custom pool by default
+    pool: './my-custom-pool.ts',
+    // you can provide options using `poolOptions` object
+    poolOptions: {
+      myCustomPool: {
+        customProperty: true,
+      },
+    },
+    // you can also specify pool for a subset of files
+    poolMatchGlobs: [
+      ['**/*.custom.test.ts', './my-custom-pool.ts'],
+    ],
+  },
+})
+```
+
+## API
+
+The file specified in `pool` option should export a function (can be async) that accepts `Vitest` interface as its first option. This function needs to return an object matching `ProcessPool` interface:
+
+```ts
+import { ProcessPool, WorkspaceProject } from 'vitest/node'
+
+export interface ProcessPool {
+  name: string
+  runTests: (files: [project: WorkspaceProject, testFile: string][], invalidates?: string[]) => Promise<void>
+  close?: () => Promise<void>
+}
+```
+
+The function is called only once (unless the server config was updated), and it's generally a good idea to initialize everything you need for tests inside that function and reuse it when `runTests` is called.
+
+Vitest calls `runTest` when new tests are scheduled to run. It will not call it if `files` is empty. The first argument is an array of tuples: the first element is a reference to a workspace project and the second one is an absolute path to a test file. Files are sorted using [`sequencer`](/config/#sequence.sequencer) before `runTests` is called. It's possible (but unlikely) to have the same file twice, but it will always have a different project - this is implemented via [`vitest.workspace.ts`](/guide/workspace) configuration.
+
+Vitest will wait until `runTests` is executed before finishing a run (i.e., it will emit [`onFinished`](/guide/reporters) only after `runTests` is resolved).
+
+If you are using a custom pool, you will have to provide test files and their results yourself - you can reference [`vitest.state`](https://github.com/vitest-dev/vitest/blob/feat/custom-pool/packages/vitest/src/node/state.ts) for that (most important are `collectFiles` and `updateTasks`). Vitest uses `startTests` function from `@vitest/runner` package to do that.
+
+To communicate between different processes, you can create methods object using `createMethodsRPC` from `vitest/node`, and use any form of communication that you prefer. For example, to use websockets with `birpc` you can write something like this:
+
+```ts
+import { createBirpc } from 'birpc'
+import { parse, stringify } from 'flatted'
+import { WorkspaceProject, createMethodsRPC } from 'vitest/node'
+
+function createRpc(project: WorkspaceProject, wss: WebSocketServer) {
+  return createBirpc(
+    createMethodsRPC(project),
+    {
+      post: msg => wss.send(msg),
+      on: fn => wss.on('message', fn),
+      serialize: stringify,
+      deserialize: parse,
+    },
+  )
+}
+```
+
+To make sure every test is collected, you would call `ctx.state.collectFiles` and report it to Vitest reporters:
+
+```ts
+async function runTests(project: WorkspaceProject, tests: string[]) {
+  // ... running tests, put into "files" and "tasks"
+  const methods = createMethodsRPC(project)
+  await methods.onCollected(files)
+  // most reporters rely on results being updated in "onTaskUpdate"
+  await methods.onTaskUpdate(tasks)
+}
+```
+
+You can see a simple example in [pool/custom-pool.ts](https://github.com/vitest-dev/vitest/blob/feat/custom-pool/test/run/pool-custom-fixtures/pool/custom-pool.ts).
