Thank you for your response, that answers one of my questions. I renamed test.pm to test2.pm and my code now looks like this: 
#! /usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use test2();
my $output = testroutine();
print $output, "\n";

Outputs... 
$ ./test.pl 
This is a test

However, how come I'm even able to call testroutine? I didn't think that use would populate my name space? Is it because I don't have package defined at the top of the module? Therefore it's assuming the subroutine is part of Main? Hope that makes sense.
Thanks again,
