To run a single test file, a couple of them, or a test within a file
using the ``make check-acceptance`` command, set the ``AVOCADO_TESTS``
environment variable with the test files or test names. To run all
tests from a single file, use:
.. code::
make check-acceptance AVOCADO_TESTS=$FILEPATH
The same is valid to run tests from multiple test files:
.. code::
make check-acceptance AVOCADO_TESTS='$FILEPATH1 $FILEPATH2'
To run a single test within a file, use:
.. code::
make check-acceptance AVOCADO_TESTS=$FILEPATH:$TESTCLASS.$TESTNAME
The same is valid to run single tests from multiple test files:
.. code::
make check-acceptance AVOCADO_TESTS='$FILEPATH1:$TESTCLASS1.$TESTNAME1 $FILEPATH2:$TESTCLASS2.$TESTNAME2'
The scripts installed inside the virtual environment may be used

may be invoked by running:
