i use the following snippet of code
but obviously it would be much nicer
to have it builtin -

   require "test/unit"
   
   class TC_MyTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
   
      DO_TEST = :test_undo_redo
   
      def test_match
      end
   
      def test_undo_redo
      end
   
      public_instance_methods.each {
         |meth|
         next if meth !~ /^test.*/ or meth.to_sym == DO_TEST
         remove_method meth.to_sym
      } if defined? DO_TEST
   
   end
   
   require 'test/unit/ui/console/testrunner'
   Test::Unit::UI::Console::TestRunner.run(TC_MyTest)
