I'd separate out the testing from the program. It makes your code cleaner, and you won't pay the costs of compiling your test suite each time you run the program.
# Main program:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
sub double {
my $n = shift;
return $n * 2;
}
return 1 if caller; # Don't leave this out.
print join ' ', map {double($_)} @ARGV;
print "\n";
__END__
# Test program:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Test::Simple tests => 3;
require 'main.pl'; # Substitute the name of your program.
ok(double( 2) == 4);
ok(double(-3) == -6);
ok(double( 0) == 0);
__END__

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).
