no, --testcase MAY take a pattern, and you didn't provide one  
(patterns start with "/" like default regexps). But that isn't your  
problem. This should shed some light:

502 % ruby -rtest/unit -e 0 -- --help
Test::Unit automatic runner.
Usage: -e [options] [-- untouched arguments]

...
     -n, --name=NAME                  Runs tests matching NAME.
                                      (patterns may be used).
     -t, --testcase=TESTCASE          Runs tests in TestCases matching  
TESTCASE.
                                      (patterns may be used).
