Seems a good plan (for these functions) However, does Rakudo's lib/Test.pm "scale" in the way that Perl 5's Test::* do? By which I mean, all the (sane) Perl 5 test modules use Test::Builder, which means that the test counting, plan manipulation (etc) is coherent and co-ordinated, even if you're using Test::More, Test::Deep, etc. It doesn't look to me like there's a way to do that (yet) in the Perl 6 ecosystem. Am I missing a way to mix in new test functions without having to replace/redo the existing ones? Nicholas Clark
