Multiple automatic sandbox versions
Can we please extend the automatic addition of a /sandbox variant to all _templateis if there is no _template++i?

Table with many tests
For some templates, especially inline templates like {{frac}}, it makes sense to have all or most test cases in a single table with one combination of parameters per row. It would be nice if this could be handled by a single function call by passing multiple parameter sets, e.g.:
{{test case|_template1=frac|_template3=sfrac
|_test1={1} |_label1=single anonymous parameter, numeric
|_test2={1,2} |_label2=two anonymous parameters, all numeric
|_test3={1,2,3} |_label3=three anonymous parameters, all numeric
|_test4={1=1} |_label4=single, first parameter
|_test5={2=1} |_label5=single, second parameter
|_test6={3=1} |_label6=single, third parameter
|_test7={1,3=2} |_label7=first and third parameter
|_test8={2=1,3=2}|_label8=second and third parameter
|_test9={a} |_label9=single anonymous parameter, alphabetic
|_test10={1,1} |_label10=two equal parameters
}}

- Alternatively, there should be an additional rendering mode cells. It would put the code and each result for all templates and sandbox versions into adjacent cells in a single table row, but the user would have to provide the surrounding table code (but possibly not the rows

Hyphen issue in Template:Test case nowiki
This came up when I was working on Template:Graphical timeline/testcases. At Special:Permalink/958740301 it can be observed that parameter |note3-at= gets a broken value. First character, hyphen, is correct, however, the first opening brace { of {{Period start}} is converted into an HTML entity for some reason. This results in an error Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "&" somewhere deep inside the template's internals. I've added a test case to demonstrate the issue on a smaller example. —andrybak (talk) 13:38, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
