Do you think it's worth changing these?
Not necessarily. The only thing I'd feel like changing would be to include the function name in the message. That said if the test fails you get the line number and thus can inspect the code to figure it out (and most likely you'll have to inspect the code anyway). I just feel like it's nice to know what function was tested just by looking at the message.

Do we have guidelines for strings like these? For example: start with a captial letter, no punctuation at the end...
What tests have "good" style I can use as reference?
We don't have guidelines for this.
