It depends what you want to achieve. You cannot execute test that belong 
to one extension without activating it.

But if you want to execute tests of only one extension, you can 
additonally pass a test folder or even a test class to the command:

./typo3conf/ext/phpunit/Composer/vendor/bin/phpunit -c 
typo3/sysext/core/Build/UnitTests.xml typo3/sysext/core/Tests/Unit/

This would only execute the unit tests for the core extension.

If you want to execute more tests (folders), just pass the paths along 
separated by space.

You could also copy the configuration file 
typo3/sysext/core/Build/UnitTests.xml and edit the test suit part of it 
to fit your needs.


Kind regards,
Helmut
