Continue on error/exception

Use case(s)

It is desirable to run all test projects as individual targets and not stop on the first time NonZeroExitCodeException, skipping the remaining test projects.

Description

Using simple-exec to run dotnet test {project} will return a NonZeroException if any test fails.

However I have multiple test projects each run as individual targets. I want to record that they failed but I don’t (necessarily) want bullseye to stop. I would like the fact that the target has failed to be recorded, processing to continue and then build “fails” at the end.

Alternatives

Capture the NonZeroExitCodeException and flip a staic flag oneOrMoreTestsFailed:

Problem 1 with this: the individual targets say “succeeded” when it is desirable they should say failed!:

Problem 2: doesn’t work when running specific target test

Close. I’ll come back to it when the itch needs scratching.
