Yes that is true. It's basically doing reflection, so the inner
Object[] has to match the args of method signature.

That is true.  By "involved" I meant the use of some complex tree of
BaseContext.  I think you probably should have something like the
ServerConfig and BrowserConfig.  That at least encapsulates the 2 types
of data.  If those change their fields, etc, that at least won't break
the test method signatures. Although methods may have to change to pick
up the new/changed data.
