A quick post to point out that my employer, Profero Ltd. released two modules that we've been developing to CPAN last week.
Test::DatabaseRow is a module that was written to simplify checking that data exists in the database. It combines the process of executing (and possibly building) the SQL and checking the results match critia into on simple Test::Builder compatible subroutine call. While not designed to be an 'all inclusive' solution for testing the integrity of a database, it should hopefully prove useful in simple cases: http://search.cpan.org/author/PROFERO/Test-DatabaseRow/ Test::CGI::Untaint is a module Test::Builder compatible module for testing a CGI::Untaint Local Extraction Handler, a custom class that you add to CGI::Untaint to extract various data types: http://search.cpan.org/author/PROFERO/Test-CGI-Untaint/ Feel free to register features requests for these modules via the CPAN RT system. Chris Nandor already suggested that Test::DatabaseRow should have a test to check that data *isn't* in the database, which I'll get round to working on as soon as we have some free time.
