Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Sometimes tests are flaky and it's difficult to check if that's the case right now without spending a lot of time building the library again.

Expected behavior

Rerun-failed tests should rerun only the test part of the pipeline, not the building library part too.

Split from #3594

Research direction

The issue names no workflow files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the repository's CI configuration and tracing how the library build and test steps are currently connected; done means the pipeline has separate build and test stages, with failed tests rerunning without rebuilding the library.
