Melanie,

The following should work as well

source .tox/py34/bin/activate
ostestr --regex *.network.*

Thanks,
Dims

('tox -epy27 nova.tests.unit.network' will only run tests that match nova.tests.unit.network).

I'm not completely clear on what 'ostestr --blacklist_file <file> --regex <regex>' does but I couldn't get it to do what I want. From the documentation [1], it adds --regex to the regex created from the --blacklist_file. The regex from the blacklist file looks something like this '^((?!blacklistedstuff).)*$' and if I can only append to it, the best I could do was a positive lookbehind but that can't match at the beginning of a line. (For example, I tried "ostestr --blacklist_file tests-py3.txt --regex '(?<=network)'" and it matched all the non-blacklisted tests that ended with the word "network"). It seems like what I would need is for --regex to do another re.search() and match the line only if the previous regex from the blacklist also matched.
