Perhaps an infinite stream is just "1.." ?
Ah, I misremembered it.
It would be nice to have the plan indicate that an infinite stream
is forthcoming. That would make it easier to write custom
harnesses for it.
Sorry if I'm jumping into this thread out of context. I hadn't seen
any discussion of infinite streams before now.
How is that infinite stream different from the no_plan case? Is it
truly infinite or just undetermined? That is, are you trying to code
for the following use case?
use Test::More test => 'Inf';
use LWP::Simple qw(get);
while (1) {
ok(get('http://www.example.com/'));
sleep 60;
}
or is it something else entirely?
