Targeted. Move them to a more targeted layer based on the risk and what you are trying to test. This will likely also help with reliability. If a check is big, break it up into smaller checks. This will also improve maintainability.
Informative. Targeted checks are more informative as it’s usually quicker to identify the failure, because you aren’t testing many things at once. Also you’ll be on a specific seam, so safe time debugging failures. Also the naming is clearly allowing faster feedback
