I see no one's answered this yet. I was hoping for more clarification
lest my (mis)understanding hampers things. You have a large data
structure to share across tests and I assume either some code builds it
and others than need it or it's

Apologies. There were some (dumb) typos that I didn't see when I
re-read the email, and I didn't do a very good job of illustrating what
the problem
So at $WORK we have a bunch of really large data (immutable) data
structures which a ton of our source code uses. As such, most tests
that we write need to access these data structures to run. These
structures can't (currently) be serialized with Storable due to having
LibXML objects in them

For the life of me, I can't really see any utility to use_ok() or

action at a distance bugs, but the constructs they replace not only
work correctly, but can be viewed as

Why not test that the script *works*, not just that it compiles?
That's a good idea. Maybe something like run_ok()?

Well, I suppose it's better that I sent the wrong tarball here, rather
than uploading it to CPAN, but it's still embarrassing.

At best you have the ability to group statements together into a test, but I
already have that without any intervening pseudo-block to get in the way of

Do you not have problems with tests dying? I may be dealing
Greetings!
This email is to announce a new testing framework that I wrote (based
on Test::Builder), which I have tentatively called Test::Functional (as
in functional programming). Before finalizing it and uploading it to
CPAN and I figured I'd email you folks to get your thoughts on the
module
