📖What it means
The standing set of checks that prove previously-working behaviour still works. Its value is entirely in being honest: lowering a threshold to turn it green destroys the only signal it carries.
⚖️What it is NOT
The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.
Not: Test
The suite is the whole standing set; a test is one check in it.
Not: Audit
The suite checks behaviour; an audit checks compliance with rules.
