/**
 * Trait that when mixed into a Suite cancels any remaining tests in that
 * Suite instance after a test fails.
 *
 * 
 * The intended use case for this trait is if you have a suite of long-running tests that are
 * related such that if one fails, you aren't interested in running the others, you can use this
 * trait to simply cancel any remaining tests, so you need not wait long for them to complete.
 * 
 *
 * 
 * Note that this trait only cancels tests in the same Suite instance, because
 * it uses a private volatile instance variable as a flag to indicate whether or not a test has failed.
 * If you are running each test in its own instance, therefore, it would not cancel the
 * remaining tests, because they would not see the same flag. For this reason, this trait contains
 * a final implementation of a method defined in OneInstancePerTest,
 * to prevent it from being mixed into any class that also mixes in OneInstancePerTest, 
 * including by mixing in ParallelTestExecution or a path traits.
 *
