well, a use case scenario isn't too difficult. it's a more or less linear path from items in cart to credit card processing.

right now i'm stuck on *why* one of the Test::Simple tests is not returning the "status" message: 

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use Test::Simple tests => 4;
use ShopDB::AuthorizeCard;

my $authCard = ShopDB::AuthorizeCard->new();

ok( defined( $authCard ), "new() successful" );
ok( ref $authCard eq 'ShopDB::AuthorizeCard', 
      "blessed into right package" );
ok( defined( $authCard ) and ref $authCard eq 'ShopDB::AuthorizeCard',
+ 
      "new() successful, blessed into right package" );
ok( $authCard->can( 'AuthorizeCard' ),
      "found the AuthorizeCard() method" );

gives me: 
1..4
ok 1 - new() successful
ok 2 - blessed into right package
ok 3
ok 4 - found the AuthorizeCard() method

test 3 is just a combination of tests one and two ... but i don't get the ok message back, and i don't get it.
