I have commited some changes to several test
programs in the current cvs code. These changes
improve reporting when an entire test is skipped
due to missing or not installed functionality. An
example of the new output format:
Before:
t/mytest.t....................ok
1/1 skipped: Skipped: mytest not installed
After:
t/mytest.t....................skipped
all skipped: Skipped: mytest not installed
The result is that a quick grep of the test harness
output table gives you a list of what is missing or
not available for your PDL install. Much simpler
to diagnose than hand running each test and reading
the output...
SUGGESTION:
Improved test output format will make PDL easier
to install and debug. We should consider requiring
Test::More for all new tests. Test::More could be
retrofitted into older tests.
