Thus test T7490 is a test for Trac ticket #7490. This is fantastic. It eliminates the need for elaborate comments in the test to say what is being tested... just look at the ticket. The old serially number tests tc032 etc are history. If there isn't a corresponding ticket, it'd be a good idea to create one. Increasingly we refer to tickets in source-code comments. They are incredibly valuable resource to give the detail of what went wrong. OK? We should document this convention somewhere.
