+## Filtering tests by name
+
+The [`--test-name-pattern`][] command-line option can be used to only run tests
+whose name matches the provided pattern. Test name patterns are interpreted as
+JavaScript regular expressions. The `--test-name-pattern` option can be
+specified multiple times in order to run nested tests. For each test that is
+executed, any corresponding test hooks, such as `beforeEach()`, are also
+run.
+
+Given the following test file, starting Node.js with the
+`--test-name-pattern="test [1-3]"` option would cause the test runner to execute
+`test 1`, `test 2`, and `test 3`. If `test 1` did not match the test name
+pattern, then its subtests would not execute, despite matching the pattern. The
+same set of tests could also be executed by passing `--test-name-pattern`
+multiple times (e.g. `--test-name-pattern="test 1"`,
+`--test-name-pattern="test 2"`, etc.).
+
+```js
+test('test 1', async (t) => {
+  await t.test('test 2');
+  await t.test('test 3');
+});
+test('Test 4', async (t) => {
+  await t.test('Test 5');
+  await t.test('test 6');
+});
+```
+
+Test name patterns can also be specified using regular expression literals. This
+allows regular expression flags to be used. In the previous example, starting
+Node.js with `--test-name-pattern="/test [4-5]/i"` would match `Test 4` and
+`Test 5` because the pattern is case-insensitive.
+
+Test name patterns do not change the set of files that the test runner executes.

 ## Extraneous asynchronous activity
 
 Once a test function finishes executing, the TAP results are output as quickly
