Sorry to contradict, but yes it does. All the test methods return if they passed or failed. That's how the "ok( open FILE, "foo" ) || diag $!" idiom works. Additionally the results of all the tests are available via ->summary() and in further detail via ->details() which makes the distinction between "this test passed" and "this test failed but we're considering it a pass (ie. todo)".
