CodeRunner was developed assuming All-Or-Nothing grading would be the norm. Usually compile and runtime errors affect all tests; a result table with the same message repeated over and over again in bright red for each test isn't very user friendly. It can also be very inefficient, e.g. if a program is looping and timing out on each test. So I abort testing after such errors.

However, your case is indeed different. So ... have you considered using a combinator template grader? That gives you total control of the whole process, including generation of the result table.
