Test::Builder

Usually you want Test::More's general functions + domain specific ones

• Unfortunately, sometimes test libraries don't play well together

• Who owns the test counter?
• Who prints the plan?

Test::Builder is a single backend to solve that problem

• Singleton object to handle the plan and the counter
• Convenient Test::More-like methods you can write wrappers around
• Already debugged and all the hard parts done for you

Test libraries built on Test::Builder will work together

Test::Exception, Test::Class, Test::MockObject, Test::Inline, 
Test::Mail, Test::More, Test::Simple...
