Description

I was using the parallel feature but without the flag-name and I didn't get a warning. However, it seems like setting parallel to true without a flag-name makes the coveralls app act as if parallel is false, without any warning or error.

It would be better if a warning or error was displayed.

Start by locating where the action handles the parallel and flag-name inputs. Reproduce a run with parallel enabled and no flag-name, then add the requested warning or error and verify that the behavior is covered by the project's available tests.
