Thanks. I do <alt>jc on a method sometimes when I have changed a
method. So sometimes I so <alt>jm and then immediately <alt>jc to
check all the tests in the class.

Does it really have to be?

This has been a problem for me for a long time. I would *love* it if
Nautilus runs a single test in debug mode (and not a second time). It
is especially painful when running selenium tests in our environment,
because firefox is launched on every test suite run, which makes
running a single test relatively expensive. I suppose solving the
problem of tests running a long time is first prize.

Because I normally run the tests that I work on while I'm in the
Nautilus browser (using shortcut keys). Why would I want to launch a
different browser, search for the class I'm working on and run the
tests there?

I could be missing it totally here. I'm quite interested to know how
other people work. A sort of work flow, to the point of running tests.

To run all my tests take a long time. There are quite a few.

Is this the right place?
