I concur. Test::Tester's style of looking at the results as data, rather than as formatted stuff, is the way to go for most test testing. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.22 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - https://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBCgAGBQJTrbndAAoJEMUdZ0L/y3sDGTgH+gNRIG9x0nkLPQvsDVdcQbZ7 06UnghZb17K2O8Xt8U4KQt+lPFUb5xIk5vy3vGyN8bTrgLy2emWbyH7U4MLCu+Kp P3iK+CaSrPqf/8gZKNcLDhbus9V/58KNVa2QNjg1b2RFfJ7Of+yCGuX607MfRN/u CfGHtQmLzx/dkr/5pfDr0BylqhFGwwAnH/Hpgwu89jghmMLgc4tfN1lsC120dhsV 4g1g21/UNCC99E9/7SzQrmJs9difOWk3Svz2jsLXvlAvRCEIpJ3e/m7svx8pLRDB FI5ccYUNDqXDdB7DPwLDz40LmmGrSQ6i6JAYG+EvVOeD0WXQ/NwTf6dHWf2nnT8= =w0z9 -END PGP SIGNATURE-

Anybody wanna adopt Test::Class, Test::Exception & Test::Block
To join Fergal’s request for module adoption… My spare tuits are being spent in other places than perl development at the moment — and the ticket queue for my modules is building up a bit. If anybody is willing to take 'em over please drop me a line. Test::Class & Test::Exception are used a fair number of places. Test::Block is deprecated so shouldn’t need any input. T::C especially is used by lots of folk internally so new maintainer would have to keep an eye on backwards compatibility.
