I agree. You are invited! Join the PerlUnit folks on sourceforge.
Sorry for not testing everything. We are working on that.
(Hope you did not play with version 0.12 ... :-( ...).

Well, you have to strike a balance somewhere. And nobody seemed
to like writing documentation, anyway. Maybe we have more, soon.
I agree that on the whole, the framework is not very "perlish".
But I don't know if this is a big problem compared to the gain
that you have reusing the XUnit framework.
