Thanks for saying this. I personally felt that the original was easier to follow---given that these tests do not have too many moving parts that may need to be changed (in which case abstracting common parts out would allow us to maintain only one copy which is a big win), being able to read from top to bottom without having to read a function and recall what the parameter was etc.
