[cross-project-issues-dev] How to name tests for bugs after GitHub move

Hi all,

are there guidelines on how to name tests for specific bugs/issues, now that the Eclipse code base has mostly moved to GitHub?

Browsing through e.g. SWT and JDT, there are tests such as "testBug415551". Those refer to the soon-to-be-archived Eclipse bugzilla. How do I name tests similarly, referring to GitHub issues?

I specifically want to name the test after the bug, I don't want to "invent" a name that tries to summarize the bug in 3-4 words (the JavaDoc comment explains the bug).

Also what about adding links to GItHub issues in the JacaDoc comment of the test? I assume that is OK (though will the links continue to work if/after repositories get "merged")?

Best regards,
Simeon
