Implementing this change in rackunit would be difficult. Currently rackunit tests are modular and disconnected from one another. What you are imagine requires the "last one" (in this file? in this call to raco test?) to see if any of the others beforehand had a problem and exit with non-0 if they did. If you want to write a different program, then something like the existing rackunit/text-ui might be appropriate, where it gets a tree of non-modular tests and does some analysis on the result of everything. I personally find this form of rackunit usage to be a pain to deal with and prefer the modular approach.
