Describe the bug

I have tasks like these:

{
	"label": "subtask1",
	"type": "shell",
	"command": "echo subtask1"
},
{
	"label": "subtask2",
	"type": "shell",
	"command": "echo subtask2"
},
{
	"label": "compound task",
	"dependsOn": [
		"subtask1",
		"subtask2"
	],
	"dependsOrder": "sequence"
}

I can run "compound task" directly from vscode and this will execute subtask1 and subtask2. I want to use this task also from runTasks:

"runTask": {
	"before": [
		"compound task"
	]
}

This produces an error:

Error: One of the tasks of the `testMate.test.advancedExecutables:runTask.before` array has failed: Error: Tasks to execute must include an execution

I could change compound task:

{
	"label": "compound task",
	"dependsOn": [
		"subtask1",
		"subtask2"
	],
	"dependsOrder": "sequence",
	"type": "shell",
	"command": "true"
}

Then there is no error, but subtask1 and subtask2 are not executed. The only way is to put them directly into runTasks:

"runTask": {
	"before": [
		"subtask1",
		"subtask2"
	]
}
