+While `cargo test` and `cargo bench` commands involve compilation, they do not provide a `--keep-going` flag.
+Both commands already include a similar `--no-fail-fast` flag, allowing running as many tests as possible without stopping at the first failure.
+To "compile" as many tests as possible, use target selection flags like `--tests` to build test binaries separately.
