Can't filter out dbt tests of BigQuery tables by a selector with config.materialized:view

[yu-iskw]

Describe the bug

We are not able to filter out dbt tests of BigQuery tables by a selector with config.materialized:view.

I implemented a dbt model for a BigQuery table and its schema tests.
When I wanted to execute only schema tests of BigQuery views by a selector, I found the issue that filtering out by a selector didn't work as expected.
In my case, I didn't want to run any schema test of BigQuery tables with a selector which has config.materialized:view.
Even I simplified the condition with just config.materialized:view, I made sure it didn't work as expected.

Steps To Reproduce

UPDATE
I created a branch/PR in my forked repository.
https://github.com/yu-iskw/jaffle_shop/pull/1

In as much detail as possible, please provide steps to reproduce the issue. Sample data that triggers the issue, example model code, etc is all very helpful here.

1. Create a model for a table (of BigQuery). The materialization have to be declared in .sql file with {{ config() }}.
2. Implement schema tests of the model
3. Add a selector with config.materialized:view
4. Run dbt ls --selector view --resource test

selectors:
  - name: view
    definition:
      'config.materialized:view'

Expected behavior

When I executed dbt ls --models "config.materialized:view", the schema tests of BigQuery tables didn't appear.
That was what I expected for the behavior of selectors.

As noted on Slack , possibly related to #2806

[jtcohen6]

Today, tests technically have the config materialized: view (i.e. the default value), which makes the config.materialized selection method work in a way that's surprising for dbt test. This is definitely something we want to fix.

Closing only because it's a duplicate of #2806.

@rsella @jtcohen6 Thank you for guiding me. I keep tracking #2806 .
