| Run.Throw | Throw an exception when test run fails. When used together with Exit, throwing an exception is preferred. | `bool` | `$false` |
| Run.PassThru | Return result object to the pipeline after finishing the test run. | `bool` | `$false` |
| Run.SkipRun | Runs the discovery phase but skips run. Use it with PassThru to get object populated with all tests. | `bool` | `$false` |
| Run.Parallel | EXPERIMENTAL: Run test files in parallel, each file in its own runspace, using PowerShell 7+ 'ForEach-Object -Parallel'. Files that contain the '#pester:no-parallel' directive run sequentially after the parallel batch. Falls back to a sequential run on Windows PowerShell 5.1, when non-file containers (ScriptBlock) are used, when CodeCoverage is enabled, or when Run.SkipRemainingOnFailure is set to 'Run'. | `bool` | `$false` |
| Run.Parallel | EXPERIMENTAL: Run test files in parallel, each file in its own runspace, using PowerShell 7+ 'ForEach-Object -Parallel'. Files that contain the '#pester:no-parallel' directive run sequentially after the parallel batch. Falls back to a sequential run on Windows PowerShell 5.1, when non-file containers (ScriptBlock) are used, when Run.SkipRemainingOnFailure is set to 'Run', or when every file opts out of parallel. CodeCoverage is supported: each worker measures its own file and Pester merges the results into a single report. | `bool` | `$false` |
| Run.ParallelThrottleLimit | EXPERIMENTAL: Maximum number of test files to run at the same time when Run.Parallel is enabled, passed through to 'ForEach-Object -Parallel -ThrottleLimit'. The default 0 uses all available processors ([Environment]::ProcessorCount). Set a lower number to cap how many runspaces run concurrently. Only used when Run.Parallel is enabled. | `int` | `0` |
| Run.SkipRemainingOnFailure | Skips remaining tests after failure for selected scope, options are None, Run, Container and Block. | `string` | `'None'` |
| Run.FailOnNullOrEmptyForEach | Fails discovery when -ForEach is provided $null or @() in a block or test. Can be overridden for a specific Describe/Context/It using -AllowNullOrEmptyForEach. | `bool` | `$true` |
