.Vb 2
\&  use Test::AutoLoader;
\&  use Test::More tests => 3;
\&  
\&  use_ok("My::Module"); # from Test::More

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This single-purpose module attempts to eliminate uncaught syntax
errors or other obvious goofs in subroutines that are autosplit, and
hence not looked at by \f(CW\*(C`perl \-c Module.pm\*(C'\fR.  Ideally, this module
will become unnecessary as you reach full coverage of those
subroutines in your unit tests.  Until that happy day, however, this
should provide a quick and dirty backstop for embarrassing typos.
.PP
Test::AutoLoader is built on Test::Builder, and should interoperate
smoothly with other such modules (e.g. Test::Simple, Test::More).
.SH "EXPORT"
.IX Header "EXPORT"
.SS "autoload_ok"
.IX Subsection "autoload_ok"
Very much like the 'use_ok' subroutine (see Test::More).  If passed
only a module name, it will find all subroutine definitions in the
\&\*(L"auto\*(R" directory and attempt to compile them.  If passed a list of
subroutine names, it will look for and attempt to compile those (and only
those).  Any files that cannot be found (if specified directly), read, and
compiled will be listed in the diagnostic output for the failed test.
