CPAN Module Review: Test::Perl::Critic (O'Reilly)

Chromatic discusses Perl's Test::Perl::Critic module on O'Reilly. "If you really want to make something a habit, find a way to do it without thinking about it. I like to automate the things I value so I never do them incorrectly, incompletely, or infrequently. Thus Test::Perl::Critic allows you to add customizable Perl::Critic tests to your test suites, so you can ensure that you’ve followed local style. I’ve been part of the Perl QA group for around five years. In that time, we’ve built dozens of wonderful test modules around a common backend library and a common protocol, evangelized testing and quality to the Perl 5 and Perl 6 developers, spread the expectation and understanding of good testing to CPAN contributors and more, and even built automated systems to check various quality measures of public code."
