Skip based on rexp

[silasb]

I've been using this tool as a replacement for postman and other similar tools. One of the things that's tricky with this is if you have a collection of endpoints in one of your hurl file you can't be selective (via the CLI) on which ones are skipped and which ones run.

While doing some POC work, I typically like to have 1-4 endpoints defined.

1st endpoint is typically always an auth endpoint to grab a JWT or OAuth2 token.

2nd-Nth endpoints are typically for me to experiment with APIs.

Today, I comment endpoints out that I don't care about, but that results in some toil.

It'd be nice to support a rexp or some other form that would allow me to run a single request.
hurl -Q "dashboard/brokers" for example. (-Q is to be similar to -Q from thesilversearch.)

With this in place, I'd think we need some sort of dependency handling incase request "dashboard/brokers" needs access to a capture.

I'm still new to this tool and need to explore some more of the features, but thought I'd share my workflow to see if I can improve it.

Hi,

Do you want to filter the list of Hurl files that you need to execute? When I need to do this, I use a combination of find ... | grep | xargs -0 hurl --test. Without using your shell expansion (i.e. hurl test**/*.hurl), you can also use --glob option to give a glob pattern to filter the files you want to execute.
