in thread [Perl6] Small discoveries I, __DATA__

The test suite is constantly tweaked to match the behavior of the latest perl6 code

Are you including new tests that land corresponding to bug fixes that land? (Which is to say, most of the changes to the test suite.) Or just removals and corrections of bad tests?

    I read it as trolling. Reworded: there is no Perl6 spec, it's all a con where they "fix" tests to allow whatever behavior it currently exhibits to be considered correct.

    A test suite is not a specification. Period. End of discussion. Saying otherwise is absurd.
