Note that parameterised methods have a similar problem to
parameterised modules - unittest results are reported in terms of
"testmodule.testclass.testfunction", so proper attribution of results
in the test output will require additional work. The separate
subclasses approach doesn't share this issue, since it changes the
value of the second item in accordance with the module under test.

Cheers,
Nick.
