+## Wildcards in list of tests to run
+
+The `meson test` command now accepts wildcards in the list of test names.
+For example `meson test basic*` will run all tests whose name begins
+with "basic".
+
+meson will report an error if the given test name does not match any
+existing test. meson will log a warning if two redundant test names
+are given (for example if you give both "proj:basic" and "proj:").
