+### Test-WeakADPasswords.ps1 v1.4.1

+- Added credential pre-validation against the selected domain controller before running `Get-ADReplAccount`, including retry prompts for rejected credentials.

+- Added optional `-Credential` parameter to `Test-WeakADPasswords` for callers that need to provide credentials non-interactively.
+
+### README.md
+Changed:
+- Updated weak-password testing documentation to reflect credential pre-check behavior and added a short troubleshooting section for common authentication/permissions failures.
