    Hi.  I'm new to PerlUnit, and I had a few questions about running tests via the command line.

    I'm used to test harnesses that will allow me to execute test scripts individually or in batch, e.g., executing all of the tests on the filesystem rooted on a certain path.  Does the current TestRunner support this, or is this outside the paradigm PerlUnit is designed to be
    used in?  I don't have any problems with writing my own solution, but I just wondered if the capacity for something like this is already built in and I just haven't found it yet.

      (We've pretty much abandonned these message boards in favour of the mailing lists)

      The stuff for constructing TestSuites handles the contents of a module, but you're still pretty much on your own for including all the relevant modules or other test scripts.

      I think most of us have rolled our own system for this. Combining them into something useful and general could be quite a challenge.
