t/README: Add a note about the dangers of coverage chasing
Having no coverage at all is almost always a bad sign, but trying to attain 100% coverage everywhere is usually a waste of time. Add a paragraph to explain this to future test writers.

- Check the test coverage for your tests. See the "Test coverage"
|

below.
|

|
||||
Don't blindly follow test coverage metrics, they're a good way to
|
||||
spot if you've missed something. If a new function you added
|
||||
doesn't have any coverage you're probably doing something wrong,
|
||||
but having 100% coverage doesn't necessarily mean that you tested
|
||||
everything.
|
||||
|
||||
Tests that are likely to smoke out future regressions are better
|
||||
than tests that just inflate the coverage metrics.
