It appears that 0.20 turned off searching for test files recursively by default. This wasn't mentioned in the change log. Its now necessary to set the undocumented recursive_test_files property for the old recursive behavior to happen. In the interest of backwards compatibility and DWIMness, I think it should be recursive by default. The problems I talked about earlier with recusive .t search are fairly special cases and can be avoided by turning it off. I'd recommend that a new version which makes recursive test search default again be release posthaste to restore the old behavior before it effects too many people. I'd supply a patch, but I'm not sure where/how property defaults are set. -- Michael G Schwern sc...@po... http://www.pobox.com/~schwern/ Its not stupid, its advanced. |
