Yes, an alternative to Test::More.  Some thoughts:

* Output everything to STDOUT (thereby avoiding the buffering
  problems that many experience)
* Eliminate legacy cruft like eq_array
* Improve how SKIP is handled:

  if ( ! $alien->DOES('genocide') ) {
      skip 1, "We have morals :(";
  }
  else {
      ok $alien->kill_all_humans, 'Muhahahahah!';
  }

* Incorporate a few more standard test functions (exception tests,
  eq_or_diff, etc)
* Output TAP 2.0 (line numbers for failures, clear diagnostics, etc)
* Wash my dishes

Cheers,
Ovid
