This really isn't the correct perl list to ask this question on. This list
is about core perl development. You probably want to ask on the list
perl-qa@perl.org which is about testing.

You'll also find information about testing with perl on
http://qa.perl.org/ - in particular see http://qa.perl.org/test-modules.html
