- tools used in fread and frollapply - parallel used in frollapply - Added 4 tests (2345.01-2345.04) to verify functionality - Updated NEWS.md with change notes These packages were being used without being declared in DESCRIPTION. Note: adding parallel to Suggests may affect codecov CI jobs per issue discussion - this requires monitoring.

What's is exactly the purpose of those unit tests? Btw. Did you read contributing documentation? More precisely the first paragraph of https://github.com/Rdatatable/data.table/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md#pull-requests-prs |

Dear Gauarv Chaudhary,
Thank you for your motivation and effort!
data.table is almost 20 years old; it's probably impossible by now for
a single person to fit the entire program in their head, and most of
the remaining problems are not at all easy to solve, even if it's
sometimes easy to see what's wrong. This is one of those issues: if not
for covr problems, we would have already marked the dependency on
'parallel'.
Instead of trying to fix covr (which will require knowledge of fork()
semantics and ability to debug concurrency problems), try your hand at
issues marked with the "beginner-task" label that aren't yet taken:

Note on Codecov
As mentioned by @jangorecki in the issue, adding
parallelto Suggests may cause codecov CI jobs to hang. This is a known upstream issue with thecovrpackage that will need to be monitored in CI. If the hang occurs, a minimal reproducible example should be submitted to the covr repository as suggested in the issue discussion.These packages were being used without being declared in DESCRIPTION. Note: adding parallel to Suggests may affect codecov CI jobs per issue discussion - this requires monitoring.
