		build_only: <True\|False> (default False)
		If true, don't try to run the test even if the
		selected platform supports it.
		If true, twister will not try to run the test even if the test is runnable
		on the platform.

		This keyword is reserved for tests that are used to test if some code
		actually builds. A ``build_only`` test is not designed to be run in any
		environment and should not be testing any functionality, it only verifies
		that the code builds.

		This option is often used to test drivers and the fact that they are correctly
		enabled in Zephyr and that the code builds, for example sensor drivers. Such
		test shall not be used to verify the functionality of the dritver.

		build_on_all: <True\|False> (default False)
		If true, attempt to build test on all available platforms.
