ok
The rest of this is just pretty verbose and seems to have been very heavily copied and pasted. I guess that's OK for test code, though.
I was tempted to play with macros, as templates to generate tests on the fly, according to the type being passed.
But I was afraid it might generate an even stronger rejection than the rest of the patchset already has.
Would it be acceptable/preferable? -- igor
