Write unit tests for config/gen/cpu.pm, the module whose functionality executes Parrot configuration step gen::cpu. Some tests have already been written for this module in the 'reconfigure' branch of the Parrot repository; see t/configure/130-gen_cpu.t in that branch (http://svn.perl.org/parrot/branches/reconfigure/). Some hints for how to proceed with testing may be found in that test file as well, including the following: "Check latest reports of Parrot configuration tools testing coverage to see where your time available for writing tests is spent. You will have to determine a way to test a user response to a prompt. In the course of writing tests, you should try to resolve RT 43146." Reports of the extent to which tests in the 'reconfigure' branch's t/configure/ directory cover the code in config/*/*.pm packages may be found here: http://thenceforward.net/parrot/coverage/configure-build/coverage.html Happy hacking! kid51
