hiya

recently here at work 
ive been asked to start 
providing test scripts 
for my projects perl modules 

ive found that its kinda hard to 
figure out which way to testcertain paradigms

i was wondering what sort of help/tips/tricks
anyone out there in modperl land could help me with

here is the root of my problem
------------
i have one modules for my project called
*::Global

now this module contains any 
subs that can be reused by the rest of my project
as well as some constants and routines 
for calling in support tables relted to categories etc


i did a use case test script
on my *::ViewMember 
and it reches out for *::Global's
constant called *::Global::MEMBER_COLUMNS

now i usually load *::Global into the Apache startup.pl

so it is instanced under Apache

but of course in testing under the test harness this will fail!



=-=-=--=
ive noticed a couple of things that might help

one is Apache::FakeRequest

as well there is the way Apache::AuthCookie tests:
by starting up an httpd server inside of its test directory

id rather not do that as it could get messy fast

so if anyone could give me any tips at all ifd be most appreciative

thanks!
