Comment (by Jamie Allsop <ja11sop@…>):

 Actually that's a good point - some sort of dummy values would probably
 work well. The call to the creation of the Master Test Suite could then
 either use that constructor or actually be created using `__FILE__` and
 `__LINE__` since technically that ''is'' where the master test suite is
 created.
