📖What it means
One check that a specific behaviour is what it should be. A test that could not run is not a passing test, and a threshold lowered to make one pass has destroyed the only thing the test was for.
⚖️What it is NOT
The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.
Not: Regression suite
A test is one check; the suite is the standing set of them.
Not: Evidence
A test produces evidence; evidence is the broader idea.
