Description
Our team is working on a large repository with many test assemblies.
The test explorer contains over 100k UTs and test discovery can take a long time, however in most cases only 1-2 test assemblies are actually changed at best.
Test discovery blocks any test execution from happening, until the discovery is complete.
For most cases, the tests are already discovered but are blocked from being run for multiple minutes.
Would it possible to allow already discovered tests to be run while the rest are still being discovered ?
