Ah. Good advice. I will look into these. update: adrianh is correct. To clarify, I'm interested in capturing the stderr of the test script itself, not testing the stderr produced by the code under test. --DrWhy "If God had meant for us to think for ourselves he would have given us brains.

Check out Test::Output and Test::Output::Tie. Nope. These are for testing things that output to STDERR (and other filehandles), not for capturing the STDERR output from test scripts :-) For the latter look at `analyze()` from Test::Harness::Straps and use some kind of IPC3/Run3 variant to capture STDERR. See Quiet test runner for an example.	[reply] [d/l]
