This should not ever be possible in any semi-sane test environment.
One could in theory write a single test function with thousands of asserts for all kinds of conditions and it still should be 100% obvious which one failed when something fails. Not that I'd suggest going to that extreme either, but it illustrates that it'll work fine.
