Subject: Wishlist: dzil prove
Run prove in the generated dist directory. E.g. "dzil prove -lv t/foo.t" or "dzil prove -lvr xt"
Or, perhaps as discussed at OSCON, "dzil prove" is just "prove" in the *current* directory and automatically sets "-l". This would be a mental affordance for people used to typing "dzil *" for everything in their root dir. I'm mixed on whether this is better. Being able to "prove" a single file in the generated dir is valuable, too.
I think the "dzil prove" meaning "prove -l" is not worth enough. I think that "dzil prove" meaning "run prove in the build dist" is just "dzil run prove" so the shorthand isn't very compelling. -- rjbs
