Write unit tests for config/auto/readline.pm, the module whose functionality executes Parrot configuration step auto::readline. Some tests have already been written for this module in the 'reconfigure' branch of the Parrot repository; see t/configure/141-auto_readline.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: "The documentation for this package is skimpy; please try to improve it, e.g., by providing a short description of what the 'readline' function is. Some branches are compiler- or OS-specific. As noted in a comment in the module, please consider the issues raised in http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=43134."; 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
