#30397 closed defect (bug) (fixed)

Slightly confusing is_email() test name

Description

is_email() returns the string on success, not true, so test_returns_true_if_given_a_valid_email_address isn't strictly accurate.

I bring it up only after having wanted to use the is_email() tests during a demonstration as an example of a simpler unit test in core. I decided against it because I thought it might confuse someone that the test didn't use assertTrue().
