Description: write tests, not scripts that run them
Writing table-driven tests is usually a good idea. Adding a test case
doesn't require adding code, so it's easy to avoid fucking up the
other tests. However, actually going from a table of tests to a test
that runs is non-trivial.
.
Test::TableDriven makes writing the test drivers trivial. You simply
define your test cases and write a function that turns the input data
into output data to compare against. C<Test::TableDriven> will compute
how many tests need to be run, and then run the tests.
.
Concentrate on your data and what you're testing, not
plan tests => scalar keys %test_cases
and a big foreach loop.
