I've got a very large internal project (many hundreds of packages) I'm trying to come up with a nice method of grouping tests together to allow a "group" of tests to be run, rather than all the tests.

I was thinking something like, laying out the tests as

t/001_first_global_test.t
t/001_second_global_test.t
t/group1/001_first_group1_test.t
t/group2/001_first_group2_test.t
t/group2/002_second_group2_test.t

then being able to do

make test group1

and just have t/group1/001_first_group1_test.t run or

make test all

and running every test

Is there a standard way for doing this? Currently how we handle it is the project is broken up into hundreds of separate (h2xs created) modules.. which is quite a pain to manage, I'd really like to bring them all together as 1 module with all the packages in it.
