I've started crafting Test::Pod::URI to extract URIs from POD and check

I thought I'd mail here and see if anyone knew of anything out there 
that already does such a thing. Anyone?

I'd like to see a base module for this task, maybe Pod::Extract::URI.
Test::Pod::URI could then use that. 


It would also be nice to have something to parse URI in the prose as
well as the code, even if it's not tagged as a URI. Maybe there isn't a
perfect solution to that, but even a 90% one would be nice. :)

I'm looking forward to whatever you come up with :)


Pod::Extract::URI 0.1 is working its way on to CPAN now. Sorry about the 
delay :( Feedback will be gratefully received.


Test::Pod::URI is next on the list. Hopefully it won't take quite so 
long

Re: BAIL_OUT and parallel tests

What should parallel tests do if a BAIL_OUT is encountered?  I think
all parallel tests currently running should be allowed to finish so
they can attempt to cleanup, but no more tests should be started.  Does
this sound reasonable?


It's not entirely clear if bail out means "kill the testing process" or "let 
the process finish but don't start any more".  If it's the former, then just 
kill everything.  If it's the latter, let them all finish and don't start any 
more.
