Hi Monks,

Here is what I have:

1. Example::Module1 with test cases - t001 t002
2. Example::Module2 with test cases - t001 t002 t003


Here is what I want to achieve:
1. Run ONLY t001 from Example::Module1
2. Run ONLY t002 from Example::Module2

if I use:
use Example::Module1
Test::Class-> runtests;
it will run all all tests in Module 1 viz. t001 and t002 in our case.

Test::Class allows you to run individual tests using $ENV{TEST_METHOD} variable.

I'm trying to run individual test cases using this as the .t file: 
use Example::Module1;
$ENV{TEST_METHOD} = '.*t001.*';

Test::Class->runtests;

use Example::Module2;
$ENV{TEST_METHOD} = '.*t002.*';

Test::Class->runtests;

The problem with the above code is that it runs t001 from Module1 correctly but it runs t001 AND t002 both from Module2. I just want it to run t002 from module2. I don't know why it is running the t001 from Module2, seems it's persisting with the first pattern match with the second module as well.

How do I correctly run this?
