What did you do?

func TestParallel1(t *testing.T) {
    t.Parallel()
    t.FailNow()
}

func TestParallel2(t *testing.T) {
    t.Parallel()
}

run with go test -v -failfast -parallel 1 returns:

=== RUN   TestParallel1
=== PAUSE TestParallel1
=== RUN   TestParallel2
=== PAUSE TestParallel2
=== CONT  TestParallel1
=== CONT  TestParallel2
--- PASS: TestParallel2 (0.00s)
--- FAIL: TestParallel1 (0.00s)
FAIL
exit status 1
FAIL	test	0.075s

What did you expect to see?

TestParallel2 not continue.

What did you see instead?

TestParallel2 continued execution.

I doubt we'll get to this in Go 1.13, but I plan to do some work on the testing package for 1.14.
