Comment (by jaredgrubb@…):

 The patch looks reasonable. My only comment is that it changes the
 test_case constructor, which could cause migration issues for anyone that
 may have subclassed or written other macros. Might be better to keep the
 original constructor around and just fill in some dummy values for
 file/line if that happens to get called.
