        * What is your evaluation of the proposal?

+1 to proposal. This will be a good change to make conventions more clearer
and a step towards supporting test specific libraries.

        * Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a
change to Swift?

Yes, the current convention system for test is confusing and not obvious.

        * Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?

Yes

        * How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick
reading, or an in-depth study?

In depth study

   * What is your evaluation of the proposal?

I really like this proposal as it reduces the surprise factor while continuing to promote convention over configuration. It also mirrors the way people are often would like to name their test modules.

   * Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a change to Swift?

Yes, it's a natural simplification that is fairly forward thinking

   * Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?

Yes.

   * If you have used other languages or libraries with a similar feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those?

No.

   * How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick reading, or an in-depth study?

Quick reading.

        * Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?
Yes

It holds up. I would like the ability mentioned in 'Alternatives
Considered' to eventually be implemented.
