I've thought about this too, but a test in a Perl file isn't really the "test" that most people would find interesting. For instance, here's a common sequence in my tests. I have four lines of "ok N", but it's really just one functional test: use_ok( $class ); can_ok( $class, $method ); ok( -e $input_file, "Input file exists" ); is( $class->$method( $input_file ), $expected, "Got it right!" ); I'm not saying we shouldn't figure out the grand number of tests, but that we should temper that knowledge with reality. :)
