Test more

Test::More is cool.

I've done unit testing for one of my larger projects at work for some time now, but I did it all wrong. A bad first example of how to setup the test environment got me going in the wrong direction. Too much work for something that should be as simple as Test::More actually is. With Test::More I don't even need any of that.

Before, I thought it was a chore, adding tests after the fact. Using Test::More it's actually easier than not using it. Or at least the end result is a lot better for the same effort. It would actually work to do things XP.

Recently I looked at embedded tests, but it didn't seem simple enough to be worth it.


The Hook is Set

My latest project uses Test::More, Test::MockObject, and Test::Exception. More domain-specific testing libraries based on Test::Builder! I'm hooked!

Pixie's test suite is starting to be heavily dependent on Test::Class. Now, if I could just get Test::Class to play a little more nicely with the debugger I'd be a happy man...
