Hi,
I recently wrote a OOP module that provides the ability to define a set
of criteria that have to be covered for a test to pass. 
STP.pm - main module, congregates one or more scalar and/or arrays of
criteria
STP::Union.pm - a module to allow bundling a bunch of STP objects to
define a more comprehensive test
STP::Scalar.pm - a single criterion that can be required or not
STP::Array.pm - an array of scalar criteria

Hi all,

following on Sawyer's talk about version control, I've been thinking of
doing 
another talk about a different software best practice: automated
software 
testing:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_automation

Since I'm a big practitioner and advocate of writing automated tests and
test-
driven development, the topic is close to my heart and I can prove of
some 
assistance in researching and preparing the material for the
presentation. But 
I'm not a good speaker so I'm looking for someone to actually deliver
the 
talk.

Would anyone stand forward and can give a talk about it? 

Some useful items to cover:

1. The motivation for automated tests - providing a spec for the
program, 
making sure bugs not resurface, preventing bugs, avoiding
over-engineering, 
having confidence in the code, etc.

2. Short introduction to automated tests by writing tests for the
classic "add 
two numbers" demo.

3. Overview of various approaches for testing frameworks - TestUnit, BDD

(rSpec, etc.), Ruby's cucumber, perl's TAP, testml, etc.

4. Testing various kinds of domains:
        - Testing APIs.
        - Testing Command line apps.
        - Testing terminal (curses, etc.) applications.
        - Testing websites.
        - Testing GUI programs.

5. Various kinds of tests:
        - Unit tests.
        - Integration tests.
        - System tests.

6. Test coverage and beyond (see 
http://www.mail-archive.com/boston...@mail.pm.org/msg04588.html ).
        - Should you aspire for full test coverage?
