Well... We used Java with JUnit and .NET with NUnit... C++ for low level testing and so fort and so on.. They all had there advantages and disatvantages. I use perl for nearly one and a half year now. But appart form the weird syntax and the golfs, and the perl haiqus it's a pretty interesting language :).
I would use JUnit and NUnit for larger project, I don't know if perl could handle it... -----Original Message----- From: Gabor Szabo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 2:39 PM To: Gergely Brautigam Cc: perl-qa@perl.org Subject: Re: My Perl QA Hackathon Wishlist On Tue, Mar 25, 2008 at 2:41 PM, Gergely Brautigam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > One last question then I swear I will shut up :) > > Why use perl for testing? Of course all others languages are used for testing this and that.. What excels perl to be used for testing. Obviusly it has powerfull regex, and datahandling capabilities... But besides that.. Why would anyone want to use perl? :) Before giving my opinion, why would you use anything else? Gabor
