retrying flakey tests?

Is there a way to retry a flakey test?

I’d basically like to have a flag that retries a failing test 2 or 3 times.

Flakey and non deterministic tests are a fact of life in more complicated
systems.

The main problem being that they are impossible to setup again because
they’re usually race conditions.

If I could just retry the test a second time , that would solve this issue.

Would be nice to have the build warned that the test is failing though..
