in thread Toggling test plans with vim

That seems like a good idea to me. Why wouldn't this be a reasonable alternative to keeping track of a test count:

use Test::More 'declare_done';
# tests here....
done_testing();

I've declared that my plan is to declare when I'm done testing. At the end of the test script, I do just that. Now, if the script exits early and done_testing() hasn't be called, we know there was a problem, and we know where it is, because we know the last test that was run.

Yeah. That's certainly a lot simpler than counting. I wish someone would write that module.	[reply]

Excellent idea. Simplicity incarnate. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. Lingua non convalesco, consenesco et abolesco. -- Rule 1 has a caveat! -- Who broke the cabal? "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.	[reply] [d/l]
