in thread Organising Large Test Suites

If you give each test a unique identifer, you can also track which tests handle which requirements. I know this would be useful for other reasons.

The ID should be something that is on the test-level without reference to which file or subsystem it deals with. Maybe, an order of creation? Then, the test suite is actually just a list of the individual test IDs that should be run?

I shouldn't have to say this, but any code, unless otherwise stated, is untested
