26659	Allow filtering of which tests run	Antonio Piraino	nobody	"As described here:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/django-developers/W6YiFg9ITg0/BAOTHezHBgAJ

we could add a new, optional parameter to filter only a desired set of (comma separated) test methods instead of writing the full path for a single test or run an entire class/package. Example, instead of this:

$ python manage.py test \
mydjangoapp.app_one.tests.test_module.TestClass.test_method_1 

we could have this:

$ python manage.py test --method-filter test_method_1,test_method_2,...

Another improvement this patch implements (as suggested in that django-dev thread) is the possibility to have the full path to the failing test to be easily copied and pasted. This is implemented adding a SimpleTextTestResult class.

These are especially useful for running only failing tests.

If the ticket is accepted, I'll write the documentation too."	New feature	closed	Testing framework	1.9	Normal	duplicate	tests		Someday/Maybe	1	1	0	1	0	0
