+We've almost doubled the number of tests, growing from 96 to 194! 🎉 Check out the [test list](https://github.com/maester365/maester/blob/main/docs/tests.md) for the full breakdown. Special mentions go to:
+- [**Mike**](https://github.com/soulemike) – Mike started adding [CISA tests](/docs/tests/cisa/entra) to Maester the very next day after Maester was unveiled at the PowerShell conference. 🚀 Since then, he’s been instrumental in contributing code, replying to issues on GitHub, and engaging on Discord. Maester wouldn’t be where it is today without him. Thank you, Mike! 🙌
