Jest: Run specific tests by file line number
Do you want to request a feature or report a bug?
Feature.
What is the current behavior?
Jest can run specific tests on the cli through -t option at present.
What is the expected behavior?
It would be super handy if jest can run specific tests by file line number like RSpec do.

Interesting. We'd have to look at the file and somehow extract the name before parsing it as babel probably adds lines. An issue is how to match on an it inside of a describe. Getting the full name without parsing seems non-trivial.
If you can make it work without lots of complexity I'd be supportive, but this probably needs to come from the community

Will close this as we aren't planning on tracking this work right now.
