Yea, but when it dies, the tests are never executed (in my case). That's probably not what's supposed to happen :).

    If you don't want the code to die, you need to use something to catch the exception. I like Try::Tiny: 
    use Try::Tiny;

my @bad  = try   { fill_in_the_blanks(qw<_ _ _>) } # fails
           catch { print "bad data!\n" };
my @good = try   { fill_in_the_blanks(qw<_ 1 _>) } # succeeds
           catch { print "bad data!\n" };

    Ah, found out where things went wrong:
    My code dies with a 'No values found' for is_deeply [fill_in_the_blanks(qw< >)], [qw< >], "( )";.
    I thought that throws_ok didn't catch the die but that wasn't the case.
    Seems our approach of the 'empty array'-situation differs :)
