 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.
