> How would you identify the commit that broke the test?

You're asking how to use bisect.

You start with a range of commits you picked. All that bisect does is help you search for a commit within that range that introduces a regression. The responsibility to specify which commits you cover is yours, not the tool.

And then bisect fails because it finds one of the many commits that broke the test before the actual regression

And that's ok. You skip the commit and move on with your life.
