Research direction

Start with array_api_tests/test_linalg.py::test_eigh and run the failing test to reproduce the FailedHealthCheck. Read the strategy used by this test and the referenced Hypothesis health-check guidance, then identify the filtering that produces too few valid examples. Done means the test no longer reports excessive filtering while retaining appropriate coverage.

Description

low priority

FAILED array_api_tests/test_linalg.py::test_eigh - hypothesis.errors.FailedHealthCheck: It looks like your strategy is filtering out a lot of data. Health check found 50 filtered examples but only 9 good ones. This will make your tests much slower, and also will probably distort the data generation quite a lot. You should adapt your strategy to filter less. This can also be caused by a low max_leaves parameter in recursive() calls
See https://hypothesis.readthedocs.io/en/latest/healthchecks.html for more information about this. If you want to disable just this health check, add HealthCheck.filter_too_much to the suppress_health_check settings for this test.
