The Pull Request Has Tests, None Working

Description

A four-panel crossover meme on mostly white backgrounds pairs Dora the Explorer with Pepe the Frog. Dora stands with folded arms and asks, "Where are the tests in the pull request?"; a sad, wide-eyed Pepe answers, "I don't have any tests." Dora raises both hands and commands, "Louder!" before the final red-tinted panel shows a motion-blurred, screaming Pepe confessing, "I DON'T HAVE ANY WORKING TESTS IN THE PULL REQUEST!!!!" The escalation exposes the technically important qualifier: tests may exist in the branch, but a failing or unusable suite gives reviewers and CI no trustworthy verification signal.
