I re-factored some of my code and wanted to run the entire unit-test suite (except the tests related to the latest/current sub-challenge). How can I do that?  
If I do “codecrafters submit”, then it runs the latest unit-test first, which fails because I haven’t implemented that feature yet.

Hey @uday19pratap, you can re-run previous tests using [our CLI](https://docs.codecrafters.io/cli/installation) like this:

```auto
codecrafters test --previous

```
