On the choice of method name, is the numbering just for convenience or
were you relying on one test's side-effects to do something for the
next one?  The manpage for Test::Unit::TestCase (notes section) talks
about this a bit.


   my $self = shift;
   if ($loaded_nok) {
       $self->fail("Unrecoverable error, can't continue.");

I haven't done anything like this with perlunit, but in JUnit running
from an Ant file, I have put aside a set of tests to run first.  They
check things like the presence of the database we're just about to run
the hundred tests against - 100 failures aren't very useful.

You could do this by generating test suites by some means and having a
more customised testrunner script.


Is it a proper way? Is there any $suite->stop method?


Hmm, there's a Test::Unit::Result->stop() which would appear to do
what you want.  I'm not sure what the proper answer is, and I don't
claim to have read the docs recently.  8-}

You'd need to get the 'result' object from the 'suite' which creates
it.  $testrunner->result()->stop() would work, but this is probably a
"dirty" solution.

A neater way might be to register a Test::Unit::Listener (I haven't
tried) and use the add_failure event to fish the Result object out
from the failure exception?


Remember, there's more than one way to do it!


Matthew #8-)

I was unable to find a way to call $testrunner->result()->stop() from my testcase. How can I access testrunner instance from testCase?
