Actually, I mean -m test --match 'test_*_capi' where --match can also be written -m.
It may catch false positive since the filter is also applied to test case names and test method names.
Maybe 'test_*_capi.*' is better, I didn't try.
You may using use "ls Lib/test/test_*_capi.py > tests; ./python -m test --fromfile tests".
There are different options.
By the way, running the full test suite just takes 5 min on my laptop, it isn't so long ;-)
