last failed is not honored when collection error occurs

[kasium]

Steps to reproduce

1. create a folder names tests
2. create a file test_foo.py with the content def test_1(): assert True
3. create a file test_bar.py with the content

import pytest
@pytest.skip("reason")
def test_2():
    assert False

4. Execute pytest tests/ -n2 -vv
5. Execute pytest tests/ -n2 --lf -vv --last-failed-no-failures none

As you can see in the logs test_bar cannot be collected due to a collection error. However in the second run also test_foo is exeuted again which is not expected. When pytest is executed w/o pytest-xdist the execution fails directly bc of the collection error. If the collection error is removed (still assert False will lead to an error), the behavior is as expected.

I use the latest pytest, pytest-xdist version and python 3.12.1

did you try adding -n2 at the end? I had a similar issue and the order of parameters seems to matter here

I did not as this only occurred once or so
