I really don't want to refactor the two test programs into two files each 
that way. Having two files without much rationale as to what is in which 
detracts from maintainability. I'm sure there is a way to refactor the 
tests in ways that actually improve maintainability. Breaking the tests 
down into smaller functions would be a good start, without actually 
breaking them into multiple files.
