That's a great start. I assume you have a copy of Schwern's grep_cpan script? > My current plan for Test/Harness.pm itself is to keep the API the > same but printed (and possibly captured) output will be coming from > TAPx::Harness - so anything that relies on that will likely break. Hmm, I was under the impression that a fair amount of code does rely on parsing the Test::Harness output. If that's the case, a good first pass is to make an exact duplicate of TH and provide an API for gathering that information rather than scraping. Of course, it also depends upon what output information is being scraped. If it's only something simple like 'All tests successful', then this is an easier task.
