Write unit tests for config/auto/m4.pm, the module whose functionality executes Parrot configuration step auto::m4. Some tests have already been written for this module in the 'reconfigure' branch of the Parrot repository; see t/configure/146-auto_m4.t in that branch (http://svn.perl.org/parrot/branches/reconfigure/). Some hints for how to proceed with testing may be found in that test file as well, including the following: "Try to test all branches and conditions; consult a recent code coverage report for guidance. Certain branches appear to be OS-specific. Consider adding a note to the POD explaining what 'm4' is." Reports of the extent to which tests in the 'reconfigure' branch's t/configure/ directory cover the code in config/*/*.pm packages may be found here: http://thenceforward.net/parrot/coverage/configure-build/coverage.html Happy hacking! kid51
