Say you have N "spec sections" in the sense of testable normative requirements. That's N single-section tests. If any time a normative requirement applies only N/M of the remaining ones do, that's N^2/M two-section tests. In practice, N is a pretty large number (in the hundreds) and M is somewhat smaller than N, so if you're doing a decent job of writing tests you end up with a lot more tests testing interaction than testing a single normative statement. -Boris
