At YAPC::Europe there was some discussion about Test::Builder->level, $Test::Builder::Level and the fact that they don't really work well as implemented. I know we reached some sort of consensus about how to do it better, but I've forgotten it.
Yet another suggestion to add to the list of possible options.
Most of the time when I need to mess with level, the code that does the test is sitting in a different package from the one that is calling the test. How about having it walk up the call stack until it find a package that differs from the one it was called in? No nasty messing with numbers and you don't have to fiddle with it every time you add/remove a sub in the call chain. Adrian
