Can't you just turn those into a single parameterized test with the test cases described as data?
I mean of course if there is only a given set of variables that changes test-to-test then I do that.
But I meant tests, that are really similar, but the variable that changes or combination of changes is varied enough that you can't parametrize it.
Some things you also shouldn't parameterize for the sake of overview and intuitiveness in understand.
