What is the test for establishing that the principal plaintiff lacked credibility?

Canada (Federal), Canada

The following excerpt is from Saverimuttu v. Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration), 2002 FCT 1021 (CanLII):

In the case at bar the perception that the principal plaintiff lacked credibility, in view of the many contradictions, improbabilities and omissions emerging from the evidence, in fact amounts to a finding that there was no credible evidence on which to base the applications in question (see Sheikh v. Canada (Minister of Employment and Immigration), 1990 CanLII 8017 (FCA), [1990] 3 F.C. 238, at 244).
