Implemented Watch mode filter by filename and by test name #1530

 If your tests write to disk they may trigger the watcher to rerun your tests. Configuring additional ignore patterns helps avoid this.
 
+### Filter tests while watching
+You may also filter tests while watching by using the cli. For example, after running
+```console
+$ npx ava --watch
+```
+You will see a prompt like this :
+```console
+Type `p` and press enter to filter by a filename regex pattern
+	[Current filename filter is $pattern]
+Type `t` and press enter to filter by a test name regex pattern
+	[Current test filter is $pattern]
+
+[Type `a` and press enter to run *all* tests]
+(Type `r` and press enter to rerun tests ||
+	Type \`r\` and press enter to rerun tests that match your filters)
+Type `u` and press enter to update snapshots
+
+command > 
+```
+So, to run only tests numbered like
+- foo23434
+- foo4343
+- foo93823
+
+You can type `t` and press enter, then type `foo\d+` and press enter.
+This will then run all tests that match that pattern.
+Afterwards you can use the `r` command to run the matched tests again,
+or `a` command to run **all** tests.
+
 ## Dependency tracking
 
 AVA tracks which source files your test files depend on. If you change such a dependency only the test file that depends on it will be rerun. AVA will rerun all tests if it cannot determine which test file depends on the changed source file.
