Not at all.  I might not be able to test the update, eg. if I'm fixing
a bug for someone else which affects a system that I don't have access
to; or if it's a fix for a bug which was reported but I was unable to
reproduce.

If I give positive karma, it's because I tested the update and found
that it fixed the problem, and that's a different situation and
certainly new information.
