Quickly switching between run configurations in PyCharm

Two actions that I perform on a regular basis are "run my tests" and "run my application". Unfortunately, PyCharm uses the same keystroke (Shift+F10, i.e., "Run") for both, and that keystroke uses my "current" run/debug configuration. I have to do a separate step to change configurations, and that step involves finding and selecting the right option from a longish list -- and it also requires taking the time to think about whether I need to switch configurations.

With as frequently as I run both the tests and the app (I'm still relatively new to Python, so I want to check frequently to make sure I haven't broken anything), this is pretty cumbersome -- especially since my usual pattern is "run the tests, and if they pass, then run the app", so I'm switching configurations all the time.

Is there an easier way to run a given configuration? Ideally I'd like to be able to bind a single keystroke to "select and run my 'main.py' configuration", and another single keystroke to "select and run my 'py.test' configuration" -- but anything th开发者_JAVA百科at means I'm not constantly hunting through a list of configurations would be helpful.

I've tried recording a macro that switches configurations and then runs, but the macro recorder doesn't actually record the "change configurations" step -- all that ends up in the macro is "run". And there doesn't appear to be a macro editor that would let me manually add that step.

I also know about the pop-up "select configuration and run" list (F9), but that still requires me to read which configuration is selected in the list, decide whether it's the one I want, and cursor up or down in the list before hitting Enter. It's not all that complicated, but it still interrupts my train of thought pretty thoroughly every time I do it. Running -- both the tests and the app -- should be simpler than this.

I know this question is super old, but to anybody with the same problem.. here it is.

I had the same problem, because I had lots and lots of scripts on the same project, and I wanted to run a script individually.

What you need to do is, open up the script (by double-clicking), and then once it is open, right-click on anything, and you will see "run [the script]" with a green play button.
