Is there a way I can check the validity of all the subroutines in my perl program
Unfortunately no. Because subroutines can be called and created dynamically there's no way of telling at compile time whether every subroutine has been defined (which is potentially
any subroutine). You could possibly do some trickery with the
B:: modules to get some way towards your goal (i.e if you assume all subroutines and subroutines calls are static). And if you're dealing with methods then it'd be difficult, if not impossible, to determine whether every method exists due, in no small part, to inheritance
