Well, you could add some input values and expected results in a __DATA__ section (maybe as some sort of YAML or other serialization format), and then add a '-T' runtime option that reads that data in, runs it through the program, and uses 'require' to load Test::More to get access to functions like is() and ok() and friends, and use those to compare your inputs to your expected results. Is something like that what you're envisioning? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
