Run a single method in a TestCase class

Question

class TestVehicle(TestCase):

    def test_speed(self):
        #checks for speed

    def test_fuel(self):
        #checks fuel quantity

I have the above test class with two test methods, but while testing I want to run only one of the two methods. How can I achieve this using

unittest.defaultTestLoader.loadTestsFromName()

@Lutz I am not trying to achieve this from command line ,I have a helper class where I create the test suit and execute using unittest.TextTestRunner — Arijit, Jun 01 '16 at 08:58

You can give the function name too:

unittest.defaultTestLoader.loadTestsFromName('TestVehicle.test_speed')

This would only run the test_speed test.
