Hello Zoe,
that's pretty fine. Instead of _[bveo][0-9]?.phpt you could do
_(basic|variation|error|object)[0-9]{3}.phpt. Which is a tad bit better.
However those are just filenames helping you to find the correct test
file while developing. For that reason we didn not do so much about
generating those files. We Only made it briefly and suggested a three
digit numbering scheme. After all th ename in --TEST.. is the important
thing.
Thanks for the effort into test writing!!!
best regards
