Test::Unit(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Test::Unit(3)NAMETest::Unit - the PerlUnit testing framework
SYNOPSIS
This package provides only the project version number, copyright texts,
and a framework overview in POD format.
DESCRIPTION
This framework is intended to support unit testing in an object-
oriented development paradigm (with support for inheritance of tests
etc.) and is derived from the JUnit testing framework for Java by Kent
Beck and Erich Gamma. To start learning how to use this framework, see
Test::Unit::TestCase and Test::Unit::TestSuite. (There will also
eventually be a tutorial in Test::Unit::Tutorial.
However "Test::Unit::Procedural" is the procedural style interface to a
sophisticated unit testing framework for Perl that . Test::Unit is
intended to provide a simpler interface to the framework that is more
suitable for use in a scripting style environment. Therefore,
Test::Unit does not provide much support for an object-oriented
approach to unit testing.

FEEDBACK
The Perl Unit development team are humans. In part we develop stuff
because it scratches our collective itch but we'd also really like to
know if it scratches yours.
