Yep, and i was pretty happy with the coverage. And I used it to design some additional tests. Also, in this particular case I had an advantage in a sense, when i first was putting together DDS I was able to steal a big chunk of the tests for Data::Dumper. Which incidentally also takes the "big test" approach. (IE, dump a data structure and then check if it looks as expected.)
