I would also find this extremely helpful in order to speed up the work on a relatively large code base (1.200.000 loc without unit tests).

Added wildcard support for new release. Sourcetrail version 2018.1.98 describes these wildcards as follows:

• You can use the wildcard "*" which represents characters except "\" or "/" (e.g. "src/*/test.h" matches "src/app/test.h" but does not match "src/app/widget/test.h" or "src/test.h")
• You can use the wildcard "**" which represents arbitrary characters (e.g. "src**test.h" matches "src/app/test.h" as well as "src/app/widget/test.h" or "src/test.h")

But it doesn't work. I'd like to exclude all '/test/' folders from analysis, regardless of their location, so I added '**/test/**' in the "Excluded Files & Directories" but the indexer stills fetch the source files inside the '/test/' folders.

Just tested this and couldn't find an issue.

Which language and which Source Group type are you using?
Is there anything odd about your file structure e.g. symbolic links, case-sensitivity?
