* Package name : libtest-tabledriven-perl Version : 0.02 Upstream Author : Jonathan Rockway <jrockway AT cpan.org> * URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Test-TableDriven/ * License : Artistic or GPL-1+ Programming Lang: Perl Description : write tests, not scripts that run them Writing table-driven tests is usually a good idea. Adding a test case doesn't require adding code, so it's easy to avoid fucking up the other tests. However, actually going from a table of tests to a test that runs is non-trivial. . Test::TableDriven makes writing the test drivers trivial. You simply define your test cases and write a function that turns the input data into output data to compare against. C<Test::TableDriven> will compute how many tests need to be run, and then run the tests. . Concentrate on your data and what you're testing, not plan tests => scalar keys %test_cases and a big foreach loop. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
