Comment (by SirLouen):

 Replying to [comment:4 rishabhwp]:
 > I did check and found there's a `test_post_password()` function in
 [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/trunk/tests/phpunit/tests/query/results.php#L1061
 results.php], but it only tests password-protected post queries, not the
 validation logic itself. The `_wp_translate_postdata()` function didn't
 have any existing password length validation tests, so this new test is
 covering a gap in the test suite.

 In this case, you can perfectly add the other test.

 You could also be adding some extra tests like for example having a user
 without `publish_post` cap calling to this function with a post_password
 and checking if the resulting array from this function has the password
 unset (just to add more coverage to this function)
