Testing allows us to say something qualitative about the software, that is the modules in a wiki, such as the number and type of known defects, especially for functional requirements. That helps the developers to identify and fix defects during development, but also builds the community’s confidence in the final module. When someone, later on, wants to use the module as part of a template, then (s)he can check out the results, possibly being assured that this is, in fact, a good module, before calling the module as part of the template. If something happens later on, possibly because of a defect in some other included module, then the tests will hopefully identify the root cause of the problem.
