Perhaps just a taste in readability thing, but I would prefer to see
them more like

	test_extra_arg_expect failure add nick url
	test_extra_arg_expect success rename origin newname

than misunderstanding-inviting "-f" that often stands for "--force".

Hmm.  I had that at first, but then the final cleanup would have had to
touch all tests to remove the optional argument, making it noisy.

Anyway, it's probably all a bit over-engineered for only one effective
code change ;-)
