No, I meant particularly this style of subplan ok 1 ok 1.1 ok 1.2 ok 1.3 ok 2 where there's an explicit indication that you're a subtest on each line and test output is explicitly nested. Compare with this style: 1..2 ok 1 1..3 ok 1 ok 2 ok 3 3..1 ok 2 The former has the large disadvange of requiring all subtests to be aware of test-wide state. And I can't think of any major advantages, though it is a bit more readable. -- Michael G Schwern [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pobox.com/~schwern/ I know you get this a lot, but you're breathtaking, like a vision of simplicity
