In the majority of cases, the test name is not detailed enough, however, it usually gives a better idea than a plain bugid. If a test fails, you still have to analyse it.

Even if it's completely re-written, it's not a new test. I'd rather keep the original name: searching for it returns some bugs; if the test name is changed, those search results are lost.
