I'm a big fan of writting tests after a program (or function) is written to test the functionality of that function and tie it into the make test product, I work with a team of people an no one "owns" the code, the tests are there so that if someone modifies the code and my tests still pass, it is likely they haven't broken anything important. You can never catch everything with tests (the tests you forgot to write probably would have checked the exception you forgot to handle in your code) but at least when you come across an exception you can write a test for it, so that future versions of your software will never again fail due to that exception.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
