I may have trouble understanding the full intention.... please help me:

You want to parse

sub test_someting($tempdir) {
    # do some tests
}
[download]

And because you see the (registered) keyword "tempdir" your test system is supposed to call this test with a prepared temporary directory?

ok(
    test_something( create_tempdir() ),
    "something",
)
[download]

Kind of a naming convention?

Did I get it right?

If yes, I could think of some alternative (and more perlish) ways to achieve this without needing to parse the signature.

PS: not sure why you call this "dependency injection" or do you plan testruns where the injected $tempdir is not a temporary dir? :)

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).
Want more info? How to link or or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
