Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #3303: --run_test arbitrary depth matching

do you want /a/b to filter out test case b in all sub-testsuites a on any level either?

yes, please, as well as /a*//b and similar, for a case when there are many tests with name "b" (say "conversion_test"), and I need one which is "somewhere" inside suite with name starting with "a" ("market_data"), no matter how many sub-suites are between them (including zero).

To me, it would be enough just to have a regexp to match versus the whole test path, but I understand it may add an unnecessary dependency on Boost.Regex which is probably undesirable.

I've introduced a notion of a label and an ability to run by label. I think this will be more natural in comparison to what you suggested.
