=head1 NAME

Test::Mini - Lightweight xUnit Testing for Perl

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Test::Mini is a light, spry testing framework built to bring the

familiarity of an xUnit testing framework to Perl as a first-class

citizen.  Based initially on Ryan Davis' minitest, it provides a not

only a simple way to write and run tests, but the necessary

infrastructure for more expressive test fromeworks to be written.

Since example code speaks louder than words:

  package t::Test

  use base 'Test::Mini::TestCase';

  use strict;

  use warnings;

  # This will run before each test

  sub setup { ... }

  # This will run after each test

  sub teardown { ... }

  sub test_something {

      my $self = shift;

      $self->assert(1); # Assertions come from Test::Mini::Assertions

  }

  # Assertions can also be imported...

  use Test::Mini::Assertions;

  sub helper { return 1 }

  sub test_something_else {

      assert(helper());

  }

Like any traditional xUnit framework, any method whose name begins with

'test' will be automatically run.  If you've declared 'setup' or

'teardown' methods, they will be run before or after each test.
