 From Tim Bunce's Perl 5 Myths 
<http://www.slideshare.net/Tim.Bunce/perl-myths-200802-with-notes?src=related_normal&rel=298087> 
talk: Perl 5.10.0 has 78,883 core tests.

Ruby has about 1,400.

1,400.

So Perl 5 core test suite has about 50 times as many tests as Ruby. So 
who has the testing culture again? It's not entirely a fair comparison 
because it's not asserting how many features each language has, but I 
doubt that Ruby is so feature poor to justify Perl having more than 50 
tests for every 1 of Ruby's.

Hello, core Ruby developers! You've got an awesome language there. Could 
you start testing, please? Your community seems to do OK. Why not you?
