Tests have improved, but not every lab has the same, equipment. It all meets a baseline standard, but some labs are more sensitive than others.
That has only mattered when failed results leaked.

Finally, a urine test can only show what was in an athlete's system that day. With many drugs having fast clearence times, or having their clearence times accelerated by other substances or methods, even an all-knowing, all-seeing test can't detect a drug that has already cleared.
You would fail an IQ test if you show up "hot" for an in-competition urine test.
The reliance on many inexpensive urine tests in competition to make it look like a sports federation is "serious" about anti-doping is one of the more egregious lies told by a federation like the IAAF.
This is the lie that explains Kenyan/Epopian drug testing. Mr. Canova has relied on this half-truth before and the IAAF's own report show it to be a false claim.
Test pool athletes from Kenya/Epopia are doing maybe one blood test a year. Maybe.
