-Not all tests will pass all test phases.
+Given a sufficient quantity of experimental nodes, and a correctly-functioning testbed,
+only one of the tests is designed to fail.
 
  * ''basic'' checks that an experimental node's group file includes the project group. It also includes two links with different delays, and one at a lower bitrate than the others. ''basic'' should pass all phases.
  * ''basic2'' checks than an experimental node properly mounted the user's home directory, and should pass all phases.
+ * ''basic3'' performs the same group file check as "basic" but will swap in on a testbed with as few as three experimental nodes.
  * ''cbr'' includes a number of links with delay, traffic agents, and link events.  The test verifies that the testbed correctly creates a log file for one of the events.
  * ''miniTbcmd2'' includes a pair of tar archives to be extracted on one of the experimental nodes, and a startup command for that node.
  * ''toofast'' is supposed to fail to swap-in (according to emulab) because one of the links is too fast, but in practice fails due to a parsing error. This is the only one of the five tests which is intended to fail.
