BDD skips tests in feature file if background fails in one test

Comienza reproduciendo el archivo de feature proporcionado con Playwright y revisa los pasos en step_definitions/mock.steps.js. Rastrea cómo el ejecutor de BDD gestiona un Background fallido entre los dos escenarios; se considera terminado cuando los escenarios posteriores a un background fallido se intentan de forma independiente en lugar de marcarse como omitidos, con cobertura de regresión para este ejemplo.

What are you trying to achieve?

Run a feature file without failing fast and skipping tests if background fails.

What do you get instead?

If you have a feature file with 5 scenarios and a Background. If a background step fails on scenario 3, then scenario 4 and 5 are marked as skipped. As we know sometimes a step fails because of timing issues or a page fails to load, this doesnt mean the background will fail each time. Isn't a Background treated as a beforeEach in mocha anyway? So it should run independently for each scenario.

Provide console output if related. Use --verbose mode for more details.
