explain() should be in Test::More core (Score:1)

by markjugg (792)

Ovid,

Thanks for posting this. In 2005 I provided a patch for an explain() equivalent to Test::More, but it was never added:

It's such a sensible, helpful feature, I don't understand why it remains a feature which people continue to have to rediscover and patch themselves.

  It's getting to the point where I'm thinking about just releasing a custom Test::More::Extra (or something) to handle this stuff. The problem is figuring out which test modules are the most common. Just choosing mine seems a bit cheeky.
