Unrepeatable Test
^^^^^
**Definition:**

* A test behaves differently the first time it is run than how it behaves on subsequent test runs.


**Code Example:**

.. code-block:: smalltalk

  Suite.run()--> Green
  Suite.run()--> Test C fails
  Suite.run()--> Test C fails
  # User resets something
  Suite.run()--> Green
  Suite.run()--> Test C fails
  Suite.run()--> Test C fails
