Variables would suffice, but make debugging harder. test_path_exists will at least print a suggestive file name. Perhaps we should add a test_assert?

The added checks guard against neutering the test accidentally e.g. by tagging the currently undescribable commit in the setup phase. That would be hard to detect without it.
