Subject: New flag: -I
Hi, I see we have "-l" and "-b" options available to Test::Harness. Could we get a generic "-I" option added as well? My first use case is automated builds; when I'm running the unit tests manually, I want to use mocked objects for some stuff (database etc), but when I'm running the tests as part of my automated build, this is done in a chroot environment with my full application stack installed, and it would be nice to test that things "really" work. Cheers, Tyler

prove has a -I. "prove -Ilib" is equivalent to prove -l. Did you mean something else? -- You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with 'til you understand who's in ruttin' command here. -- Jayne Cobb, "Firefly"
No, I'm just blind. Would you believe I skimmed over the options in --help 2 or 3 times before I filed the ticket? Sorry about that, I should have searched the manpage for the option... busy day. - Tyler
