No Devel::Declare. Ever. | Elliot Loves Perl

A boy and his language. No Devel: Declare. Ever. 2009/12/17 – 11:29 am. I think Devel: Declare is evil for the same reasons that Adam does. Even if PPI supports it, Perl: Critic will not be supporting any syntax that’s not part of the language core. Not only because it would be necessary to figure out semantics, but because I oppose balkanization of the language. To quote myself: “. Add a ‘class. keyword. Would that break MooseX: Declare?

Test Moose accessors? Hell, yes. | Elliot Loves Perl

A boy and his language. 2010/02/16 – 9:36 pm. I’m sorry Dave, but you’re wrong, wrong, wrong. The purpose of testing “attributes” is not to test that Moose did its thing. The purpose of testing attributes’ accessors is that they are part of your class’ interface. That an accessor is backed by a Moose attribute is an implementation detail. Just because. Is an attribute accessor today doesn’t mean that the data won’t be stored elsewhere in the future or even be derived from something else.
