I think it would be good to be able to set the total maximum number of retries, not for a single test, which can be done already, but for all of the executed tests in a run.
It seems to be a essential feature, because in Maven Surefire plugin there is a "skipAfterFailureCount" property and the Gradle test-retry-gradle-plugin has "maxFailures".
When the system under test is completely broken then doing the retries without a total limit would make the total test execution time very long, it should fail faster.
I am not sure how that can be configured in a JUnit way to disable the retries if the total number was exhausted.
