Pass/Fail addictionYou feel good when starting a test with Verify that and ending with Pass or Fail

Pass/Fail rehab:Look at some more places than what is stated in the Expected Results field

Write the occasional test idea using the word "investigate"

You can ask richer questions than: Is this correct or not?
