A tangential comment:
The xUnit approach avoids this question of "counting" altogether - you create one or more subroutines whose names begin with 'test', each of which contain one or more assertions such as is_deeply($got, $expected); and the test runner runs all the test* methods. It counts the number of test* methods for you.
