 To run one single test  ::
 
-    $> testr run --parallel tempest.api.compute.servers.test_server_actions.ServerActionsTestJSON.test_rebuild_nonexistent_server
+    $> testr run --parallel tempest.api.compute.servers.test_servers_negative.ServersNegativeTestJSON.test_reboot_non_existent_server
 
 Alternatively, you can use the run_tests.sh script which will create a venv
 and run the tests or use tox to do the same.
