in reply to Testing for Beginners

chromatic has given some talks on testing in perl. Slides to various talks (testing and otherwise) are available from http://www.wgz.org/chromatic/talks/

Also, in my own quest for knowledge, I discovered prove is installed as part of my perl distribution (5.8, maybe others), which lets you specify particular test files to run. It looks quicker than running "make test" and setting various command line variables for make when you just want to test a single (or a few) *.t files. "man prove" for details.
