When we wrote testcase that has forking inside results are printed twice. Can we correct this ?

[host1]$ cat test.pl
use Test::More tests => 2;
 
sub for{
my $pid = fork;
if($pid == 0 ){
}else{}
waitpid($pid,0);
}
 
$a = "hi";
ok ("hi" eq  $a);
ok("1" eq &for());

[host1]$ perl test.pl
1..2
ok 1
not ok 2
#     Failed test (test.pl at line 14)
not ok 2
#     Failed test (test.pl at line 14)
# Looks like you failed 1 tests of 2.

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.
