+# beam: fix pytest collection crash from module-level sys.exit
+
+Renamed `verify_wordcount_test.py` -> `verify_wordcount.py` so pytest's
+`*_test.py` collection pattern no longer imports a verification script whose
+module-level code calls sys.exit(0), which aborted the whole test session
+with INTERNALERROR.
+
+Verification script still runs standalone and reports PASS.
