Description

Right now when I have a number of tests in a yaml file I can't run individual test(s) during benthos test run.

Go and a lot of other tools provide a selection mechanism to select a subset of tests to run either by name, prefix or a wildcard.

Research direction

Start with the benthos test command and the YAML test-file handling described in the issue. Determine how tests are currently selected, then define a way to run one or more tests by name, prefix, or wildcard; done means a subset can be selected without running the whole file.
