Any old fashion appears to be the done thing at the moment.

Well, I'm currently going through the Test::Unit code trying to make it
reliable (I had problems when I first used it with it breaking badly
in some strange places), adding some more tests to its test
classes and trying to make its assertion failures rather more
informative.
Once that's done, Test::Unit is a rather neat set of tools for writing
OO testcases and the like, which even has a rather lovely Tk based
progress thing.
