-An integer value representing the number of test failures after
-which the test execution should stop.
-If set to `0`, the test runner will not bail out,
-and all tests will run regardless of failures.
-**Default:** `0`.
+The `--test-bail` flag provides a way to stop the test execution
+as soon as a test fails.
+By enabling this flag, the test runner will exit the test suite early
+when it encounters the first failing test, preventing
+the execution of subsequent tests.
+**Default:** `false`.
