On other forum pages, I've seen that I can run specific hspec
tests with the command
stack test --test-arguments "-m "<filter>""
where <filter>
is set to match it
's textual descriptor for the intended tests. I frequently use this command to run single tests of interest without having to run the entire test suite.
But I do not understand how exactly this command specifies that. For instance, what kind of argument is "-m "<filter>""
, and what does that "-m" mean? What other arguments can be specified as the "-m "<filter>""
is here?
About --test-arguments
, stack test --help | less
says only
--ta,--test-arguments TEST_ARGS
Arguments passed in to the test suite program
which is the only relevant documentation I have found on how to specify stack to run a subset of tests.
