Description
Among documentation, a new code contribution should contain adequate tests, not just a single example.
If a review is not done carefully, unreasonably number of new bugs will be added to the project. The implications are well known: the developers will have to spend more and more time for debugging.
Nobody wants this to happen.

You do not understand the different target audiences: an example show the typical use (and for not too difficult stuff), an easy one is usually enough. An test is completely different: here we want to test corner cases, the goal is a good coverage of the sources (and not the number of tests). Again different are timing examples. And only the first one belongs to documentation.
