How were you doing it? Using TEST_FILES? > The new test_harness wrapper sorts the order of tests again. can we > remove that? By default 'make test' has to run the tests in sorted order. Lots of modules rely on this. In 5.X it was done by coincidence, since t/*.t produces a sorted list of files in most shells, 6.X does it explicitly. If you can figure a way to keep the default behavior and let people override the order and not have the resulting 'make test' shell command be enormous, patch it. -- Michael G.
