Sometimes you want to prevent running tests altogether, if certain prerequisites aren't met.

On a related note, if a setup_dir / setup step fails, processing should probably stop altogether too.

Implementing the latter would enable the former: user could then place a prerequisites check in a top-level setup_dir script and report a nonzero exit code if prerequisites aren't met, causing overall processing to stop right there.
