We've just released
Test::Harness 3.00.
It's a complete rewrite of Test::Harness with a more modular architecture that
should make it easier to write custom testing tools.
In no particular order here are some of the things that have changed:
- Support for TAP version 13
- Cleaner API
- Closer integration with CPAN::Reporter
- Parallel test runs
- Improved output formatting
- Machine readable YAML diagnostics
- Better detection of TAP syntax errors
And in alphabetical order some of the people who made it happen:
- Sebastien Aperghis-Tramoni
- Leif Eriksen
- Shlomi Fish
- David Golden
- Jim Keenan
- Andy Lester
- Michael Peters
- Curtis Ovid Poe
- Michael Schwern
- Gabor Szabo
- Eric Wilhelm
Thanks!
Development on Test::Harness continues. There are a number of
proposals on the Test Anything Wiki and at least
some of them will make it into future releases. If you'd like to follow progress
more closely - or offer some help - you'll find the Test::Harness developers
on the TAPX-DEV mailing list
or on #toolchain on IRC.
Great news for Perl testing

Thanks for all the hard work on this. In the past few years Perl quality has skyrocketed and all the great testing modules have played a big role in this. Your work here will keep perl at the forefront of testing.
Sincerely,
John
