+Did you know that you can control which tests are run using RSpec's runner options? There are a few options I use every day:
+
+- `--seed=` - random order of tests is done by generating a random number, a seed. You can force given order by passing in [seed value](https://rubydoc.info/github/rspec/rspec-core/RSpec%2FCore%2FConfiguration:seed). Great for repeating order from CI!
+- `--only-failures` - only tests that failed in the previous run will be run.
+- `--fail-fast` - stop run after first encountering failure.
+
+Today I also learned about `--bisect`, which, in a flaky suite, will find the minimal set of tests that will fail the suite. Magic!
+
+You can find a lot more of such options on [Github](https://github.com/rspec/rspec-core/tree/main/features/command_line).
