That threw me off when I first encountered jUnit. For much of the
testing world, a 'test' is a collection of one or more asserts
which verifies that a particular feature behaves the way that it
should. So the following from Test::Class will confuse folks not
used to Perl:
sub foo : Tests(3) {
my $self = shift;
my $object = $self->class->new;
can_ok $object, 'foo';
ok $object->foo('bar'), '... and it should accept "bar"';
is $object->something, 'something else',
'... and it should properly update the object state';
}
For most of the testing world I've seen outside of Perl, that would
be a single test. Terminology will be a barrier.
Yup. With T::C I tried to always use the phrase "test method" for
what the xUnit folk would normally call a "test" (although the
mapping isn't exact).
