Kent will be talking about getting started with unit and functional testing using everyone's favorite language, Perl.
Additionally, he will talk about code quality, test coverage, and making things a lot easier on the person doing the testing using a Makefile.
Finally, Kent will talk about how he used Test::Harness to create a custom test module in order to be able to unit test the code in use at his job, which is a template framework that combines perl code with HTML, making traditional unit testing rather difficult.
Here is a link to the Chicago Perl Monger's website for the meeting.
As with all Chicago Perl Mongers meetings, everyone is welcome, whether or not you consider yourself a member. We look forward to seeing you there!
