Intellij has support for scala test and testng, so you can run a single test.
It seems that last time I checked, I was able to run a single Kotlintest (1.3.5) in IntelliJ (2016.3) without any issue.
I can run a single spec in IntelliJ (2016.3.2) but not a single test case with KotlinTest 2.0.
This would need https://github.com/kotlintest/kotlintest/issues/184 so closing this one, we can track whether this happens in https://github.com/kotlintest/kotlintest/issues/184
