[THINGS THAT MIGHT BREAK YOUR CODE]
  • Anything that displays a percentage of tests passed has been
    removed. Output at the end of failing runs is now different.

[FIXES]

  • Fixed the TODO-passing patch from 2.57_05.

[ENHANCEMENTS]

  • The unnecessary display of percentages of tests passing and failing
    have been removed. Tests are not a percentage game.

  • Caches the results of _default_inc(), which is expensive because
    of shelling out to get the pathnames. Benchmarking was showing that
    15% of Test::Harness's time was spent in this function. For test
    suites with many test files, this can be significant. With this
    speedup, the "make test" for the Perl core speeds up 2.5%.
    Thanks to Nicholas Clark for finding this.

[DOCUMENTATION]

  • Fixed HARNESS_PERL_SWITCHES typo. Thanks, Andreas Koenig.

  • Added docs on HARNESS_TIMER and --timer. Thanks, Mike O'Regan.
