If a class is annotated as @istest why do the test methods within the class need that annotation?
If a class is annotated as @istest why do the test methods within the class need that annotation?
So, for example:
@isTest
private class myTestClass
{
@isTest static void test1(){...}; //current convention
static void test2(){...}; //why not this?
}

Because you can put "helper" methods in the class. They don't run by themselves, but are used to do things like initialize records, set up variables, etc.
For example:
public static void init() {
insert new Account(Name=...);
...
}
@isTest static void test1() {
init();
...
}
@isTest static void test2() {
init();
...
}
