The tests will outlive the current bug database and not clear (at least 
not to me) how easy it will be to map these CR numbers to the bug 
information. In this case I probably would have named is something like 
runTestShowSettingsAndVersion and mentioned the CR in the comment if 
needed. However, this is your area and what you have is fine.
