   Yes, but the only way the tests know that is through the `testData` array. I 
suppose it doesn't really matter because the test case covers it, so if anyone 
changes the data they'll have to fix this hard-coded value too, or it won't 
pass. Or, at least, we hope it won't pass, unless there's some kind of strange 
bug in TO where it returns a garbled notification that just so happens to fit 
this hard-coded value. But that does seem unlikely. I don't understand why

   is what you have to do anyway, but this is just having humans do it instead 
of having the computer do it programmatically.
   
   Alternatively, this could just check that a notification of the form 
<code>test notification: <var>CDN Name</var></code> exists for *every* CDN 
instead of singling one out. In fact, I just checked and that's what the old 
tests used to do, so this is technically losing coverage by not replicating 
that.
