The Good News: there are now 3 projects that do selective testing in java - Testar, JTestMe, Infinitest
The Bad News: each is in various stages of incompleteness.

Yet I am encouraged and hope that progress will be swift in this area.

I see three major use cases for selective testing:

* Running tests while editing your code just as modern IDEs compile your code on the fly. The best example of this approach is Infinitest.
* Making the smoke test build fast. (Often the smoke test is run as a pre-submit test for the code to be committed to the repository)
* Quick feedback from acceptance/integration/QA tests. This is best achieved with a build grid to run these tests in parallel.
