Subject: wish: test for 'upload' method
File uploading is an important function of CGI.pm. I would like to see an automated test for in the test suite to confirm that it keeps working over time. If you'd like, you may be interested to use the method for testing this provided by CGI::Uploader: http://search.cpan.org/src/MARKSTOS/CGI-Uploader-0.61_02/t/basic.t http://search.cpan.org/src/MARKSTOS/CGI-Uploader-0.61_02/t/upload_post_text.txt However, I wrote that code, and I came to look at the CGI.pm distribution to see there might be a better/easier way to do this. :) Mark

I poked around a bit more and found that CGI::Simple seems to have a fairly elegent method for testing the upload function(): http://search.cpan.org/src/JFREEMAN/Cgi-Simple-0.071/t/simple.t Since the syntax for 'upload' is the same there, you should be able to re-use the tests for upload() directly.
