Setting Up For Unit Testing My Library

[ prev UnitTestingMyLibrary | next UnitTestingMyLibraryPrintFooter | top UnitTestingMyLibrary ]

UnitTests for MyLibrary require essentially the same Perl and MySQL software components as are required for a normal install of MyLibrary except that installing the MyLibrary module and scripts is not necessary. Tests for the subroutines can be placed in a subdirectory of that containing MyLibrary.pm and use

 require "../MyLibrary.pm";

instead of

 use MyLibrary;

The PerlLanguage module PerlUnit Unit::Test (http://search.cpan.org/dist/Test-Unit/) provides a version of the xUnit TestingFramework that can be used with ProceduralCode as well as with ObjectOriented code.
