**Background**

when using `circleci tests run` we can take advantage of two features - “parallelism” and “rerun failed tests”

**Issue**

when running with several parallel workers, and a worker fails on `Too long with no output (exceeded 10m0s): context deadline exceeded`.  
trying to “rerun failed tests” will fail with error `There was an error gathering test names: can not rerun failed tests: no failed tests could be found `

**Suggestion**

when no failure data is available for a worker, “rerun failed tests” should rerun all the tests that were assigned to that worker (all splits are deterministic AFAIK)
