in reply to Devel::Cover for Dummies

If you use Module::Build, there's already a ./Build target that does the coverage for you. This is an example of a brand new module bootstrapped using Module::Starter's module-starter utility:

$ module-starter --module Foo --mb --author "some 1" --email 'some1@ex +ample.com' Created starter directories and files $ cd Foo $ perl Build.PL Checking whether your kit is complete... Looks good Checking prerequisites... Looks good Creating new 'Build' script for 'Foo' version '0.01' $ ./Build help |grep cover docs testcover html testpodcoverage
$ ./Build testcover t/00-load.........ok 1/1# Testing Foo 0.01, Perl 5.010000, /usr/bin/pe +rl t/00-load.........ok + t/boilerplate.....ok + t/pod-coverage....ok + t/pod.............ok + All tests successful.
