in reply to What is wrong with testing like a noob

How much work is it to run your tests? Can your test code interfere with your other code? How maintainable are your tests? Can you run one set of tests with a single command? Can you run the entire test suite with one command? How much work is it to see how many tests are passing and failing? Do you have to read and interpret the results yourself or does the test code do it for you?

I can't tell any of the answers from the code you've posted, but if your code does what I think it does, I think you might see a lot of productivity gains if you spent two minutes to learn how to use Test::Simple's ok() function.

After that, everything is easy.
