I've done this with great success.  When I worked Dave's Kata 2 (binary
chop) exercise, I put all his tests in a module called ChopTests.  I
then wrote several versions of chop (called chop_iterate,
chop_recursive, etc).  The unit tests looked like this ....
   
  class TestChopIterative < Test::Unit::TestCase
    alias chop chop_iterate
    include ChopTests
  end

You can see the full example at ...
