This only helps if everyone uses the same convention. Which means that it needs to be implemented in one important place. Such as within Test::More itself. For instance you can have an environment variable which, if it is set, will run the first 30 tests and then only tests thereafter which are specifically marked as truly being important.
If Schwern objects, tell him that testing is fine and dandy, but you have to walk a practical line between the benefit of running tests, and people's willingness to go through it. Right now a lot of modules are going way over...

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).
