This is why I like TAP.

And how would TAP reduce the number of expected results?

TAP doesn't compare output to expected output files. It's simply a test result output stream. A separate program then harnesses that output, looks at what passed and what failed, and emits a report. So you only have to maintain one file of tests. It makes test-driven development a lot simpler, not to mention enabling better conditional testing, TODO tests, skipping tests, etc.

Best,

David
