prerunmodifier does not return failed tests preventing rerun of tests

[philipp2023]

prerunmodifier does not return failed tests if output.xml contains more than one failed test and at least one skipped test. Thus rerun is not executed, despite there are failed tests.

Steps to reproduce

1. Run suite containing 2 or more failing tests and one test which is skipped. e.g. robot -d Reports --skip TAG_002 VariablesTest
2. Rerun failed tests with robot -d Reports --skip TAG_002 --prerunmodifier DataDriver.rerunfailed:.\Reports\output.xml -L TRACE -o output_1.xml VariablesTest

Actual result
No tests are added:

Expected result
Failed tests are added for rerun

I also meet this issue, when I want to rerun the testcases, if failed testcase just 1 , it can rerun successful , but if more than 1 ,it will rerun failed , I am not sure why

Only rerunning failed cases is not working with the mentioned command in robot framework documentation. It is rerunning all cases. Please provide any solution if possible

My workaround is to parse the output.xml for failed tests and write these to an input file for datadriver.
