Re^3: TDD of non-module codeby grantm (Parson) |

This is my first attempt at TDD in Perl. I'm using Test::Simple and nothing more complicated than ok. The Test-Simple distribution includes the Test::More module - since you already have it installed, you might as well use it. For an example of how this will improve your life, consider this test:
Using the is function from Test::More the same test might be written like this:
The difference is that when your test fails, the diagnostic output will tell you what value was expected and what was actually received - making things much easier to debug. Test::More has a number of handy functions like this which will save your time.
