While that file is written in nqp, its part of rakudo - It may require other code in rakudo that isn't available in nqp. If you grep for Perl6::Pod in the source, you'll see that it's mentioned primarily in src/Perl6/Actions.nqp - that's the Actions file for the Perl6 grammar. So, this code is primarily exercised by writing actual POD6 in a perl file - use the syntax that calls the action that calls the sub you're interested in. Alternatively, if you're trying to test a particular set of inputs to these methods, you can construct a match object and pass that in (as these subs all seem to expect a match; they're designed to be used in conjunction with the grammar/action objects). -- Will "Coke" Coleda
