Moin,
is there a re reason that the following warns:
% perl -MTest::More -le 'plan tests => 1; ok (1,1)'
1..1
# You named your test '1'. You shouldn't use numbers for your test
names.
# Very confusing.
and this not:
ok 1 - 1
% perl -MTest::More -le 'plan tests => 1; ok ('foo','foo')'
1..1
ok 1 - foo
This has prevented me from "converting" several huge old testsuites from
"use Test;" to "use Test::More;" because I know that I would then have to
go and add testnames to thousand of tests (e.g. all tests that test for
number output). This is very boring, and you can bet that I will come up
with "is ($foo->baz(), 12, 'is 12');" just to shut of the warnings. And bad
testnames are like bad comments, better have none than a bad or silly
one :)
If I could just change "Test;" to "Test::More;" without hundreds of warnings
springing on me I know I would convert the test scripts and then change
them step by step over to the new code (or not change them at all, because
don't change working code..)
Best wishes,
Tels
