We've another developer version of the new Test::Harness. We strongly encourage everyone to download and test out the new harness. All feedback welcome! From the change log:
- Refactored all display specific code out of TAP::Harness.
- Relaxed strict parsing of skip plan for pre v13 TAP.
- Elapsed hi-res time is now displayed in integer milliseconds instead of
fractional seconds.
- prove stops running if any command-line switches are invalid.
- prove -v would try to print an undef.
- Added support for multiplexed and forked parallel tests. Use prove -j 9 to
run tests in parallel and prove -j 9 --fork to fork. These features are
experimental and currently unavailable on Windows.
- Rationalized the management of the environment that we give to test scripts
(PERL5LIB, PERL5OPT, switches.
- Fixed handling of STDIN (we no longer close it) for test scripts.
- Performance enhancements. Parser is now 30% - 40% faster.
