One must-have test pattern is the BaseTest class.
It will help you to avoid a lot of bad practices and better manage your pre and postconditions.

Remember when #TV wasn't 24/7 and we saw #testpatterns? Or how we had to wait to watch scheduled programmes? buff.ly/3kaoSD4
We'd love to hear your memories of those early days of @BBC TV: buff.ly/37KJnQG

Test patterns from the @THX WOW! laserdisc (Side 2, Chapter 19: Alignment Test Signals - Color Bars and Pluge). They could make for some really cool wallpapers. #THX #THXLtd #testpattern #testpatterns #colorbars #pluge #testsignal #testsignals #tech #1990s #TBT #ThrowbackThursday

Are you old enough to remember seeing #testpatterns on #TV before programs began?
They appeared first as a 'Tuning Signal' in 1934: buff.ly/3kaoSD4
