 Benchmark mode calls `bench` functions and throws an error, when it encounters `test` or `it`. This mode uses `benchmark.include` and `benchmark.exclude` options in the config to find benchmark files.

-Typecheck mode doesn't _run_ tests. It only analyses types and gives a summary. This mode uses `typecheck.include` and `typecheck.exclude` options in the config to find files to analyze.

 You can start running tests or benchmarks with `start` method. You can pass an array of strings to filter test files.
