This is not Test.pm's fault but the fact that test.pl is not run through Test::Harness by MakeMaker. This is a historical accident. No, I won't change it. Many test.pl's do not output TAP. For example, DBI's test.pl contains benchmarking code.
Side note: Module::Build does run test.pl through Test::Harness. Dealing with the various things that test.pl might do in either case was a real headache-maker in writing CPAN::Reporter. Anyone with CPAN stats have any handy figures on how many test.pl files are still out there? And for those Kwalitee-fanatics, how about a "no_test_pl" check? Regards, David
