Fedora Update Notification

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : perl-Test-Simple
Product     : Fedora 14
Version     : 0.98
Release     : 1.fc14
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Test-Simple
Summary     : Basic utilities for writing tests
Description :
This package provides the bulk of the core testing facilities.  For more
information, see perldoc for Test::Simple, Test::More, etc.

This package is the CPAN component of the dual-lifed core package Test-Simple.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update to the latest version of Test-Simple changes behavior of is() and 
others:
* is() and others will no longer stringify its arguments before comparing.  
Overloaded objects will make use of their eq overload rather than their "" 
overload.  This can break tests of impolitely string overloaded objects.  
DateTime prior to 0.54 is the biggest example.

This update also includes:
* subtest() should not fail if $? is non-zero.
* subtest() no longer has a prototype.  It was just getting in the way.
* The filehandles used by default will now inherit any filehandle disciplines 
from STDOUT and STDERR IF AND ONLY IF they were applied before Test::Builder is 
loaded.
* The behavior of is() and undef has been documented.
* Document how to test "use Foo ()".
* You can call done_testing() again after reset().
* Correct various typos and spelling errors
* Fix alignment of indented multi-line diagnostics from subtests
* Fix incorrect operation when subtest called from within a todo block
* Avoid spurious output after a fork within a subtest
* is_deeply() didn't see a difference in regexes
* Test::Builder::Tester now sets $tb->todo_output to the output handle and not 
the error handle (to be in accordance with the default behaviour of 
Test::Builder and allow for testing TODO test behaviour).
* Fixed file/line in failing subtest() diagnostics.
* Protect against subtests setting $Level
* subtests without a 'plan' or 'no_plan' have an implicit 'done_testing()' 
added to them.
* is_deeply() performance boost for large structures consisting of mostly 
non-refs
