Research direction

No source files or test entry points are named in the issue. Review the open pull request #293 first, then trace the test-result logic and its existing diagnostic-based tests; the work is done when results no longer depend on file or directory names and false positives and false negatives are detected as described.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

tests

Instead of determining whether a test should pass or fail based on its file or directory name, all tests could be treated the same way. Each test fails if an expected diagnostic is not reported (false negative) or if a diagnostic is reported without a corresponding comment (false positive).
