Overall, the more test cases the better. That is the whole idea I believe.
We are trying to test every aspect if Ubuntu catching anything that hurts
its functionality. If we believe a test case should primary then we should
make primary or optional.  We want to grow our testcase database. It is
also important to know how functions should work according to its design.
Then create the testcase.
