A few examples that come to my mind: - A test that generates random inputs (property-based testing, testing for deadlocks, etc.) - A test that reads inputs/outputs from an external Excel sheet - An integration test hitting a remote (test) database - An acceptance test that runs against a live website In short, tests aren't always deterministic, and rerunning them may increase my confidence.
