I very much rely on patterns in my code.
One example is how individual test methods are ordered within a Feature test. At a high level, the controller methods are tested in the same order as the default resourceful controller order: index, create, store, show, edit, update, destroy.
Then, within each controller method group, the individual tests follow a consistent order as well: authentication, authorization, the success path, and finally other failures like "not found", validation logic, and so on.
It makes it super easy to jump into an old project, or to see I'm missing something when scanning. As a side benefit, if you use any tools like GitHub Copilot, I've found they pick up on this structure and suggest scaffolding out tests more precisely.
