A useful test pattern is to define a matrix of tests in a table or view by building a cartesian join of multiple dimensions. If you do that, you'll want to do something along the lines of SELECT plan( 0 + <some number of static tests> + (SELECT count(*) FROM test_view) ); Because count(*) returns bigint doing this with plan(int) forces you to cast the output of count(*) to int. Switching plan() to accept a bigint removes the need for that cast.

Isn't it just as easy to use plan(COUNT(*)::int)?
