test, test, test

I uploaded Apache::AuthDigest up this morning. both versions 0.01 and 0.02. why two versions in such a short period? well, two reasons actually:

  • I didn't follow my typical production rule of never releasing on friday. it just never works out.

  • I relied too heavily on my test suite.

    in this case, the configuration of my httpd binary (whether mod_digest.c is present or not) directly affects how my module operates, so I needed to test against two binaries but I forgot.

    tests are not a substitute for actually thinking (or caffeine, for that matter).
