That's the question. Should we report PASSED in that case as we do now?
Let's consider parameterised tests, our only current example in KUnit.
I think in most cases, it's a bug that if we got 0 cases and we should
let the user know somehow.
Should it be an error/warning? Maybe not, but wouldn't it be better to
report SKIPPED?
(This would require a change in KUnit on the kernel side, I'm not
suggesting we do this in the parser)
