Enable snippets or builds based on file name

#1

I have some Python-related snippets that I use for unit testing:

ae -> self.assertEqual(a, b)
at -> self.assertTrue(x)
ar -> self.assertRaises(exc, fun)
...

These auto-completions are useful only when writing unit tests, so I would like to enable them only if the file I’m editing contains “test”` in its base name.

Similarly, I have ST builds which are specific for unit tests (e.g. “Test This File”): I would like to enable these builds only when I’m editing a Python file and file has "test" in its base name.

Is there a way to programmatically add scopes/contexts based on the file name (e.g. via EventListener.on_load)?
