This feels very X-Unity.  He might want to look at Test::Class which
provides very similar functionality.  Dedicated, inherited test methods.
Setup/teardown routines.

The major benefits of a changeover include no longer having to maintain
your own X-Unit module, parsable output, being able
to play with all the other Test::Builder derived modules and Perlish
testing functions (ie. is() instead of assert_eq()).

Since he's coming from an X-Unit background, the idea that the test
and the harness are different things might take a little getting used to.

To ease the transition, it should be pretty trivial to rewrite your
system as a subclass of Test::Class and also to reimplement your assert
functions using Test::Builder.
