#### Running tests with a specific identifier
It is possible to run a specific job via `/packit test` command.
The user just needs to specify the argument `--identifier <job_identifier>` and Packit will trigger only the job with this identifier.
The whole command should look like this: `/packit test --identifier my-job-id`.
It is possible to run a specific job via the `/packit test` command.

The user just needs to specify the `--identifier <job_identifier>` argument and Packit will trigger only the job with this identifier. Alternatively, `--id <job_identifier>` and `-i <job_identifier>` are also accepted.
The whole command should look like this:

/packit test --identifier my-job-id
/packit test --id my-job-id
/packit test -i my-job-id

All of the above are equivalent.
You can also configure [`test_command.default_identifier`](/docs/configuration#default_identifier) to allow commonly used jobs
to be triggered without the need for manual specification.
