When using the test/unit autorunner, you are able to supply some
options. Two of these options are -t (–testcase) and -n (–name); to
run only a given testcase or tests matching a given name respectively.
These two filters don’t get combined. If I have two test cases
containing a test of the same name, I’d expect to be able to specify
the exact test to run using both -t and -n. Currently -n appears to
take priority and therefore both test methods will be run. Is this
explicit by design or a result of my (potentially unusual) test
construction?
I just had a quick look at combining filters but my efforts were
hampered by the inclusion of a default filter that always evaluates to
false (set in AutoRunner#process_args). My solution was to be to run
through all filters (in Collector#include?) for a given method rather
than returning prematurely as in the current implementation. Does
anyone have any insight as to the purpose of the default
filter?
Cheers,
Chris

I looked into this and found it filtered for the union of all options
rather than the intersection.

I built a patch that seemed to produce an intersection behavior, let
me try to dig it up. Nathaniel T. was semi-interested in the idea.

Hi Eric,
Did you find your patch at all?
