Re-run failed tests

[lkurcak]

Problem to solve

When running multiple tests (e.g. hurl --test *.hurl) usually only a few tests fail. After implementing backend changes I want to primarily re-test the failed tests, but typing the tests manually is annoying, while re-running all tests wastes time.

Proposal

Interactive re-run.

There could be an optional flag, e.g. --interactive-rerun. If any of the tests fail a prompt will display: Rerun failed? [Y/n]. User can now press Enter to run the failed tests again.

Hi @lkurcak, just a note, Playwright has a similar kind of command --last-failed https://playwright.dev/docs/running-tests#run-last-failed-tests.

To run only the tests that failed in the last test run, first run your tests and then run them again with the --last-failed flag.

npx playwright test --last-failed
