      Recent experience with fromjson() shows that some components which are only used by test code, or which are widely believed to only be used by test code, may lack testing themselves. This is particularly likely to be true of older code.

      Note that this is an area where looking at code coverage from our tests will not help. These are infrastructure components which are being called from test code, but the correctness of whose behavior is not being systematically validated by those tests.
