Loud and striped is never the solution. It should simply be distinct enough from the test scenario, and require additional and unique steps to perform.

"require additional and unique steps to perform."

I completely disagree. There should be a single difference between the actual and a drill.

Is this a test or a drill? Yes/No

If the test steps and the real steps are different, then what's the point of a drill?
