Like the Anonymous One said, (and wasn't this an answer to an earlier question you had about Test::More?): Don't run your tests with perl foo.t. Test::More is meant to be used inside a testing harness such as is provided by prove. use prove.
$ prove -lr t/050-types.t
t/050-types.t .. ok
All tests successful.
Files=1, Tests=22, 0 wallclock secs ( 0.02 usr 0.00 sys + 0.07 cusr
+ 0.00 csys = 0.09 CPU)
Result: PASS
Also, use
note and
diag and
explain in tests, then the
-v option to
prove can be used to control your "debug" output as well as test output verbosity.
The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
