For instance, how do you write a test that tests your objects ... timely destruct?
How about (untested):
{
package CrashDummy;
@CrashDummy::ISA = 'MyPrecious';
*ok = \&Test::More::ok;
my $counter = 0;
sub DESTROY {
Test::More::ok( ++$counter == 2, 'DESTROY called' );
$_[ 0 ]->SUPER::DESTROY;
}
{
my $dummy = bless +{}, __PACKAGE__;
ok( ++$counter == 1, 'inner scope' );
}
ok( ++$counter == 3, 'expected execution order' );
}
?
How do you test your shuffling or die rolling technique is fair and produces results according to your specifications (say, according to a Gaussing distribution), and isn't biased favouring certain outcomes?
There are a bazillion statistical tests to compare sampled distributions. I'm surprised none of these would meet your needs.

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).
