Bug #15413 for Test-Distribution: Test::Distribution chokes on "t/lib" hierarchy

Mon Oct 31 03:07:05 2005 NUFFIN [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

Test::Distribution chokes on "t/lib" hierarchy

When Test::Distribution is used it finds modules under 't/lib', e.g. 't/lib/Foo.pm' and then instead of trying to 'use Foo' with a modified @INC, it tries to 'use lib::Foo'.

[Changed subject to remove the reference to "lib"] I'd like to add a "me too" on this. I have a file called t/MockObject.pm and Test::Distribution is getting very confused by that. The $self->{packages} list should come from searching blib for .pm files, not from searching the MANIFEST. See Test::Perl::Critic for a good example. -- Chris

v1.23 solves this problem for me, but I still assert that looking in lib/ is a bad idea. Test modules should work exclusively against blib/, which specifically contains the files that are intended for install. -- Chris

I agree. The change in v1.23 was to solve a different bug/problem that a particular user was having. I will look to changing the module to look in blib/lib in a future release
