There are some difference between FunctionalTests (aka AcceptanceTests) and
UnitTests. Idea of unit tests is that they are written by programmer and they test isolated pieces of program while functional tests are implemented by other party (for example QA stuff) and they test whole application. It is important difference!
The purpose of functional and unit tests is different and they are implemented by different people. Obviously they need different tools. Test::MockObject is useful in unit testing but it is wrong tool for functional testing (and this is what about dragonchild is asking).

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).
