Steps to reproduce the issue:
- open search "cmd + shift + F"
What did you expect to happen?
The search in positron is in many ways very nice! And once I get used to them more I feel like I will become more efficient than before. But...
I miss the "Search these files" options that RStudio gave
Should I just use tests/testthat/*.R instead of "Package tests"? Yes. But there is something nice about the user-friendliness of the old way.
Were there any error messages in the output or Developer Tools console?
Nope

Research direction
