Hi, I'm using "prove" to run tests produced by shell scripts. These shell scripts should be tested with various shells. So, manually, prove -e sh -j9; prove -e bash -j9 etc.
Now, I'd like to run the tests in parallel for all the shells (that's where the bottleneck really is). I can see several options:
- Create a bunch of wrapper scripts that run the actual tests, and test the Nt * Nsh wrappers instead of the actual tests. Horrible.
- Set up the harness manually and call runtests with multiple aliases for each .t file
- Extend TAP::Harness
- Learn more about Plugin, SourceHandler
Where should I look?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
