Salutations, brother monks.

I have just started using Test::Harness, love it. The first thing you have to do, it appears, is push all your test files onto an array so you can runtests(). Rather than do this manually, I am grabbing all the files that end with .t in a directory, using File::Find.

This works, but it seemed rather long. Is there is a more elegant/shorter way to accomplish the same thing?

use strict; use Test::Harness; use File::Find; my @tests; my @test_files = get_files('./t'); push @tests, @test_files; runtests(@tests); sub get_files { my $directory = shift; opendir (DIR, $directory) or die "couldn't open directory: $direct +ory"; my @myfiles; my @directories_to_search = ("$directory"); find( sub { my $name = $File::Find::name; if ( $name =~ /\.t$/i ) { $name =~ s|\\|/|; # substitute forward slash for back slas +hes, icky but don't know a better way. #print "name: $name\n"; push @myfiles, $name; } }, @directories_to_search); return @myfiles; }
