Well in both you need to be fast and efficient and aware of whats going on around you like cars or people and in Martial Arts you need to be aware of what your opponent is doing and where they are. In both you need to have strength in your arms legs arms stomach and back. In parkour you have the risk of getting hurt easily but in martial arts there is no jumping off buildings on to concrete and parkour is a type of martial art. conditioning for both is a lot of work.

No. It is not a fighting technique. That being said, in a more general sense (and not a sense that people ever use the term "martial arts"), there is a potential martial (military) value to parkor. There is overlap between the two where breaking falls and rolling are concerned.
