-* `idf.py -T xxx build` - build unit test app with tests for specific components. 
-* `idf.py -T all -E xxxbuild` - build unit test app with all unit tests, except for unit tests of some components. (For instance: `idf.py -T all -E ulp mbedtls build` - build all unit tests exludes ulp and mbedtls components).
+* `idf.py -T "xxx yyy" build` - build unit test app with tests for some space-separated specific components (For instance: ``idf.py -T heap build`` - build unit tests only for ``heap`` component directory).

 When the build finishes, it will print instructions for flashing the chip. You can simply run ``idf.py flash`` to flash all build output.
