At some point, this ought to be a major goal of Perl QA. It's
mostly an
implicit goal now, but now that CPAN contributors at least realize
that
*having* tests is good and useful and *using* decent test modules
helps a
lot, perhaps we can spread the idea that tests are just code and
good style applies there as much as anywhere.
Yeah - it's something I've noticed over the last year or so. I'm
talking to people less about "you should write tests", and much more
about "you should write /good/ tests".
Cheers,
