# Running a subset of tests

Sometimes you might have a specific subset of tests in mind that you want to execute. For example,

• You might want to run tests only for a particular field that you're working on
• You might want to check if all fields have proper null checks in place
• You might have tagged some tests as high priority and want to run only those tests

For these kind of situations, you can use the search on Tests table and "Run All" to execute a subset of tests. The search works on description, categories, tags and UUIDs of tests.

Let's take a look at some examples:

• To run tests for a particular field (e.g. phone_number), you can search the field name and then "Run All". This will run only the filtered tests

  

• To run tests for a particular category, you can search using the category name or use the "Filter Tests by Type" option.
• Searching by tags works the same way as searching by field name
• You can also select specific tests using the checkbox and only run the those tests
