[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It seems obvious once you know, but at first I didn't realise that the

 ===============
 
 By passing a bash style glob filter to the ``exec`` or ``run``
-commands, we can run a subset of the tests built into a kernel . For
+commands, we can run a subset of the tests built into a kernel,
+identified by a string like ``$suite_name.$test_name``. For
 example: if we only want to run KUnit resource tests, use:
 
 .. code-block::
 
 	./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run 'kunit-resource*'
 
+Or to run just one specific test from that suite:

+.. code-block::
+
+	./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run 'kunit-resource-test.kunit_resource_test_init_resources'
+
 This uses the standard glob format with wildcard characters.
