Name tests by the behavior they verify

Why this matters

A test name is documentation that runs. Names like test1 or it works tell you nothing when they fail. State the scenario and expected result so the failure output reads like a specification.

// Bad
it("works", () => { ... });
 
// Good
it("returns 401 when the token is expired", () => { ... });
