Let's try using the new template for a while before bothering to convert
the old ones, just in case there's a problem with using just one.

Mostly.  There's also a #switch statement based on the test type.  (I
suppose that's not realy necessary -- we could just look at which
parameter values were defined.  Let me sleep on that design question.)

(This also gives us a last chance to rename the parameters; I'm not
thrilled with some of the names, although I don't have any clear changes
in mind.)
