Does anyone know of a good Perl unit test generator?

  • Does anyone know of a good Perl unit test generator?

  • Answer:

    Not sure what you're asking, but most people write tests with http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Test::More or http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Test::Class. You then run these tests with the prove command included with Perl (actually, with Test::Harness). Example test: # foo.t use strict; use warnings; use Test::More tests => 1; ok( 1 == 1, 'is one one?' ); Running this: $ prove foo.t foo....ok All tests successful. Files=1, Tests=1, 0 wallclock secs ( 0.01 usr 0.01 sys + 0.03 cusr 0.00 csys = 0.05 CPU) Result: PASS

EDIT: (Thanks to commentors) My original suggestion of PerlUnit is deprecated. Use http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Test::Class instead. Original Post: You could try http://perlunit.sourceforge.net/. There is also a book chapter on unit testing in Perl: http://www.extremeperl.org/bk/unit-testing

If you're going to test web apps, http://seleniumhq.com allows you to do stuff in firefox and have it automatically be recorded as an equivalent set of Perl (or other language) tests. While it doesn't test everything, it is good for testing the user experience.
