Sorry; I misread your post; you appeared to seek an objective standard. You want specific instances. You did not intend to relate your post to mine; they merely approach the same question from different directions.

Um, anyone can throw together a list of stuff he likes somewhat. My vote for top Perler is Michael Schwern; for top contribution, Test::Simple. I consider Test::More the most important module extant. And yes, I've sent him fan mail.

    What do you use Test::Simple and Test::More for?

      Test::More is a module included in the Test::Simple distribution. A detailed explanation of it would not be appropriate here; I'll just say that it is the basic Perl testing module. If you're new to software testing, I cannot too highly recommend that you study up on the topic.
