A filter spec has the format: [-][tag][/module][:class][.method]
The '-' specifies if we want to include or exclude tests matching this spec.
- The tag will match tags added on a class with a @tagged decorator. By default tag value is 'standard' when not
- given on include mode. '*' will match all tags. Tag will also match module name (deprecated, use /module)
+ The tag will match tags added on a class with a @tagged decorator
+ (all Test classes have 'standard' and 'at_install' tags
+ until explicitly removed, see the decorator documentation).
+ '*' will match all tags.
+ If tag is omitted on include mode, its value is 'standard'.
+ If tag is omitted on exclude mode, its value is '*'.
The module, class, and method will respectively match the module name, test class name and test method name.

+ Filtering and executing the tests happens twice: right
