In QA engineering, **visual summaries** such as charts are powerful tools for quickly communicating the outcomes of test executions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. **Pie charts**, in particular, are effective for illustrating the proportion of passed and failed tests, making it easy to spot issues at a glance and prioritize further investigation. In this challenge, you will practice your data visualization skills by creating a pie chart that displays the distribution of test statuses from a static list.
