Many good modules listed so far, so here's a plug for my current favourite. I recently drank the Devel::Cover KoolAid™ and I'm finding it immensely gratifying. It picked up one borderline bug, and has helped me restructure a couple of methods to reduce the number of possible execution paths, which in turn simplifies coverage testing. Now I'm writing lots of fiddly tests to cover the fiddly edge cases, which, while I'm reasonably confident don't have bugs because I know they work already in production, it'll be a satisfying to have them all pinned down by tests. It would be nice to be able to view public coverage stats of CPAN modules. I think that would help Perl stay one step ahead of the competition. Yes, I know there's more to testing than mere coverage, but you have to have at least that in place. - another intruder with the mooring in the heart of the Perl In reply to Re: Favourite modules March 2005 (Devel::Cover)
