I don't really like the proliferation of module test helpers, it only
makes things confusing and forces you to switch between more files in
your editor. By contrast, the subclassing solution is simple, explicit
and obvious.

(I also wonder what problem this subthread is trying to solve at all.
Just my 2 eurocents)
