# =============================================================================
# repete — Repeats a test a fixed number of times.

#
# What this teaches:
#   • Test flakiness mitigation — `repete <N>` runs a test case up to N times
#     until it passes; useful for non-deterministic or flaky tests
#   • Declared as a test modifier on `proba`
#
# Common mistakes:
#   • Confusing `repete` (test repetition modifier) with `itera` (loop iterator) or `fac`/`dum` (loop constructs).

# repete — repeat test modifier
#
# GRAMMAR:
#   testModifier :← 'repete' integer
#
# EXPECTED OUTPUT:

#
# BACKEND:
#   declaration-only test modifier (whitelist: repete/repete.fab).
