Test::More 0.71 fixed a subtle bug where a call to use_ok() inside a BEGIN
block without a plan would be silently ignored. That is...
use Test::More;
BEGIN { use_ok('Exporter') } # for example
plan tests => 1;
pass();
would pass when it should have failed. This commonly takes the form...
use Test::More;
if( ...something we need isn't there... ) {
plan skip_all => "Missing something";
}
else {
plan tests => 2;
}
BEGIN { use_ok('Some::Module') }
Even though the use_ok() comes after the plan() in the code, it gets run
before because of the BEGIN block. If your code does the above, it won't work
anymore.
This has already effected two modules, and one of them is DBI.
