Reusing a Salesforce Connection
Typically when using a callable UI Test, the default will be for Provar to create a new browser session for a Salesforce connection step. If you would like to reuse the browser launched by the calling test, follow the steps below in reusing Salesforce connection:

Jenkins Callable Tests Without an Override Connection
When combining normal test cases and callable test cases, you have the flexibility to specify if you want the combined tests to run using the same browser from end-to-end or run using multiple browsers.
When using Jenkins, if you don’t specify an override connection, the test will simply open up a new callable test case connection when transitioning to the new test. This also applies to other continuous integration tools such as Travis and Bamboo when reusing Salesforce connection.
