Stupid question, but does my snippet above emit a TODO test?

I also rebuilt the like_xpath routine after removing the lines making use of the XPath parser (see below). What output do you get from it?

use strict; use warnings; use Carp; use Test::More; use Test::Builder; sub like_xpath { my ($input, $statement, $test_name) = @_; die "usage: like_xpath(xml,xpath[,name])" unless $input && $statement; my $Test = Test::Builder->new; my $ok = eval { # Hardcode a failure return 0; }; if ($@) { $Test->ok( 0, $test_name ); $Test->diag( " Parse Failure: $@" ); return 0; } else { ok( $ok, $test_name ); unless ( $ok ) { diag ( " input: $input" ); diag ( " does not match: $statement" ); } return $ok; } } plan tests=>1; TODO: { local $TODO = 'testing todo block'; like_xpath('<xml-bad/>', '/xml', 'test test'); }
