Subject: Feature: Import modern core features
Test::Most has a significant advantage over Test::More in that it automatically does 'use strict; use warnings'. This request is to also import core features from at least v5.10 (or better v5.16) by default. That is equivalent to 'use v5.10'. cf. Modern::Perl

Should read: Test::Most adds great value to Test::More in that it ... I can write a patch if you agree to the request.

This does sound like an interesting idea. If you submitted it as a pull request against https://github.com/Ovid/test--most, that would be great. The major issue would be making this optional to preserve backward-compatibility. If someone already has a 'when' function in their namespace, I'd hate to break their code. Cheers, Ovid

Thank you Ovid - I will start work on this and get back to with a pull request. It might take me a few weeks. On Fri, Aug 2, 2013 at 3:47 PM, Curtis 'Ovid' Poe via RT < bug-Test-Most@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text

There's been no activity in a year, so I'm closing this ticket. Best, Ovid
