.SH "NAME"
Test::Unit \- the PerlUnit testing framework
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
This package provides only the project version number, copyright
texts, and a framework overview in \s-1POD\s0 format.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This framework is intended to support unit testing in an
object-oriented development paradigm (with support for
inheritance of tests etc.) and is derived from the JUnit
testing framework for Java by Kent Beck and Erich Gamma.  To
start learning how to use this framework, see
Test::Unit::TestCase and Test::Unit::TestSuite.  (There
will also eventually be a tutorial in
Test::Unit::Tutorial.
.PP
However \f(CW\*(C`Test::Unit::Procedural\*(C'\fR is the procedural style
interface to a sophisticated unit testing framework for Perl
that .  Test::Unit is intended to provide a simpler
interface to the framework that is more suitable for use in a
scripting style environment.  Therefore, Test::Unit does not
provide much support for an object-oriented approach to unit
testing.

The Perl Unit development team are humans. In part we develop stuff
because it scratches our collective itch but we'd also really like to
know if it scratches yours.
