Test harnesses?

2005-07-25 Thread Peter Kay
http://qa.perl.org/test-modules.html has a bunch of test modules listed. However, there are no harnesses listed. I know Test::Harness, and I'm going to go read about Test::Builder, but what other "meta-testing" modules are there? Did anything ever happen with a distributed tester? --Peter

Test::Harness with modules that output to STDOUT

2004-08-24 Thread Peter Kay
I am attempting to write tests (using whichever Tests::...) for a module that will use Test::Harness. The module outputs to STDOUT (it just does). Now, in theory, Test::Harness currently ignores anything that doesn't start with "ok" or "not ok", but for whatever reason, when I have "no_plan",
