I think it may be combined. I've tried to save test code by reuse of parametrized dynamically tested methods and by merging of multiple ops in one test. This would allow to save even more test code by specification of alternative parameter types. The only (temporary) issue I see now is another level of uncertainty added by the transformations, so in case of an error the dynamic content is harder to debug. However that will settle down as all the implementations and tests become more stable.
