I just discovered problems with the very new Test::Tester module and
the quite new Test::Builder module in the Test::Simple
distribution. The check_test() function does not work right in
Test::Tester any more (don't know why it passed its tests) and this
causes, for instance, Test::Output to fail its tests (horribly). Quite
probably many other modules would be affected, albeit only in their tests.
I have alerted the module authors and rolled back using the following
CPAN shell commands:
install M/MS/MSCHWERN/Test-Simple-0.74.tar.gz
install F/FD/FDALY/Test-Tester-0.106.tar.gz
I suggest waiting for a version of Test::Tester with a version number >
0.107 and a version of Test::Simple with a version number > 0.79_01.
