Thanks, Phillipe, for the response. I expect to incorporate
Test::Database in the release after the present one. Not this
release, since it would mean a fair bit of rework for the existing
tests, and I really need to focus on getting the present release out
before making any substantial changes.
Is there a way to find out how many testers have Test::Database
installed and configured? It would be terrific if it were also
possible to find out what drivers they have installed.
Best,
Nat

It has been suggested that I use Test::Database and use whatever
drivers are available on the test site. Unfortunately this release
is tied to MySQL, not for any deep reason, but because that's what I
use in my "day job". I plan to expand to other DBMSs (SQLite, at
least), but I want to get this release out first, because it fixes
some important bugs, before adding major new functionality.
Test::Database lets you say which drivers you support, and will
only provide handles for those. So when your module starts supporting
new drivers, it's just a matter of updating your list.
I'll be working on improving Test::Database during the QA Hackathon
in Vienna, so I'm interested in any feedback you have on issues with
this module.
Thanks,
