Is it possible to export only specific content types? While I was working on the theme update on my test server, original website got quite a lot of updates. But I can't just re-import the whole database, since I've got some new blocks and views here now. Can I somehow export only specific content types and import only them?

Any handy feature in Drupal itself, or maybe module? It should be a wide-spread requirement, since Drupal is such content oriented.
Take a look at the Node export module.  From the project page:


  This module allows users to export nodes and then import it into
  another Drupal installation, or on the same site. The idea is similar
  to the way you export/import Views or Content Types.
