Just to prevent confusion, this issue is fixed in Team City v8.x, We don't need those workarounds now.

You can specify the step execution policy via the Execute step option:

Of course you need to fail the build if at least one unit test failed:

https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/TCD8/Build+Failure+Conditions

On the Build Failure Conditions page, the Fail build if area, specify when TeamCity will fail builds:

at least one test failed: Check this option to mark the build as failed if the build fails at least one test.
