    Also, my original reason for asking about removing the hard coded value of 
10K was because that value is the cause of the bug and so a regression test 
would need to know the value. 
    
    I could have hard coded 10k in to my test.  However if a developer 
increased its value later, say to 100K, without increasing the hard coded test 
value as well, they could potentially render the test useless since it would 
always pass.
