  It seems like this would be less difficult if he didn't use Class::Std. A normal hash-based object makes it look simpler to me anyway:
  
push @{ $self->{'files'} }, @more_files;

    Throwing in an extra arrow makes it look simpler? Strange definition of simpler. :-)

    I like to preface my inside-out object methods with “my $this = ident my $self = shift;”, btw, which makes that code into this:

    push @{ $test_files{ $this } } , @failure_files;

    Of course Hash::Util::FieldHash [cpan.org]’s idhash function will make that separate $this unnecessary in 5.10 and you’ll be able to just write this:

    push @{ $test_files{ $self } } , @failure_files;

    The real problem persists through all of these, though: that extra @{} bracket.

      To each their own, I guess. The @{} doesn't bother me at all, but the way instance variables are referenced in Class::Std does.

        My reply swelled into a post of its own [perl.org].
