Passing "isTrue" allows the option change the assertion values. In practice all my assertion values are hardcoded to either true or false, since a case hasn't risen yet where this is needed.

As with all abstraction, layer rules and naming conventions will help keep things clear. While in theory having a single spec run doesEverythingWork() is feasible, everyone would have a hard time understanding what "everything" is and navigating the stack trace should anything break, would take a while and probably a lot of grep and sed filters.

The general folder structure I'm working with is:

|tests
  | templates
  | page_objects
  | specs

While the templates use the same modular pattern as page objects they should definitely be separate files.
