Docs Changes Needed from dbt-core Issue #10053

dbt-labs/dbt-core#10053

Link to the page requiring updates

https://docs.getdbt.com/reference/node-selection/methods

Part(s) of the page to update

There should be a new section called The "unit_test" method. It should be similar to other sections like The "saved_query" method).

Details

We probably only want to include the final "execute a single unit test" example from below within the docs. The other pieces are just to show how someone might discover the identifier of a specific unit test in the first place.

List all resources, including unit tests:

dbt list --select unit_test:my_project.my_unit_test

List just the unit test resources:

dbt list --resource-type unit_test

List a single unit test:

dbt list --select unit_test:my_project.my_unit_test

Execute a single unit test:

dbt test --select unit_test:my_project.my_unit_test
