Please don't do that.  If you want to force a Perl dependency for your own project that's fine, but for a template project it's a bad idea. People using the template will probably be unable to build on Windows. Also, keep in mind that sometimes test names will be automatically generated.  For

Just for the integrity of this topic. One solution to pass/fire an event programmatically is to use GLib.Signal.emit_by_name(), e.g.: drawingArea.button_press_event.connect( (event) => { GLib.Signal.emit_by_name(textView, "button-press-event", event); } ); However, if the signal of interest
