Testing with Perl

Testing with Perl 5

There are a number of test modules for Perl, ranging from very simple tests through to very complex tests. Here are some links to some of them; all of these use the Test Anything Protocol to report their successes or failures:

• Test::Simple
• Test::More
• Test::Exception

A number of harnesses are available including:

• TAP::Harness
