It is impossible for that to work as you expect: the code to determine if the next test is to be executed runs long, long after the code that uses the variable to determine what it should do.

Also, this introduces an ordering dependency that may not be respected, and a state dependency between two tests, both of which are bad ideas.

If you really have a dependency between the two operations, either express it statically, or skip at runtime in the second test based on information extracted in the same test.  Don't try and pass information between two tests, ever.
