We can't just call an API and be done.
We're testing a feature.

Your test passes.
Can someone read it and know what the API should do?
When the docs are gone and the wiki is stale, tests are the only living documentation.
But do they communicate intent?

When we're doing some test planning, we usually think about what to test, and we assume we know, or we'll know, how to do that.
In this video I explain what's the difference between test planning and design.

Even if a test takes 10 seconds, we're not running just one - we're running whole suites.
Lucky for us, we can choose between different test designs, that can give us the same answers, in different speeds.

If we can complete running, or building a test, quickly - we'll take that route.
That's may not be the right choice.

Feasibilty is about the cost of our design options. Since each option carries a different cost, we should consider multiple options.
Cheaper options - more time to test.

We want to trust our tests, so we can make good decisions based on them. For that, they need to be predictable. And we need to think about it when we design our tests.

Test design has many aspects. But the most important is efficacy.
We need to make sure when we design tests, if they answer a simple question - does what we're testing, works as we expect?

When we choose to test through the API or the UI, we make a design choice. And when we copy a test just to modify it a bit - that's design too.
