A large number of *failing* test cases. What if you do

  def flunk
  end

or

  def flunk
    assert true
  end

?

  class Foo
    define_method ...
  end

should work fine. If you have an existing Class object you can also do

  Foo.class_eval { define_method ... }

Rescuing exceptions perhaps. I thought you said that you expected most 
of your tests to pass, and only a few to fail?
