writing tests for perl scripts that are part of a larger application.
for historical reasons, the scripts do not have a .pl extension.
using Test::More
the file I want to test is located in a relative directory "/source/bin"
I'm trying
unshift @INC, '/source/bin';
require_ok('foo')
but I get the error message:
not ok 1 - require foo;
# Tried to require 'foo'.
# Error: Can't locate foo.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /source/bin
+(blah, blah, blah) at (eval 6) line 2.
maybe the more important question is "can I 'require' a script without a '.pl' extension?" because if I change it to foo.pl the test works. but again, for historical reasons, the scripts do not have extensions and changing that would require more refactoring than I can do (at this time)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
