Could use Math.E here instead.

For the particulars of the test vector for abs, another way to structure this
would be a 1-D array of positive numbers where nested test loops used the test
value and its negation as the input with the positive number as the expected
value.

I suggest looking at some other math test for the "equivalent" test idiom so
that NaNs could be used in the test vector.
