Description:
TestML <http://www.testml.org/> is a generic, programming language agnostic,
meta language for writing unit tests. The idea is that you can use the same
test files in multiple implementations of a given programming idea. Then you
can be more certain that your application written in, say, Python matches your
Perl implementation.

In a nutshell you write a bunch of data tests that have inputs and expected
results. Using a simple syntax, you specify what functions the data must pass
through to produce the expected results. You use a bridge class to write the
data functions that pass the data through your application.

In Perl 5, TestML module is the evolution of the Test::Base module. It has
a superset of Test:Base's goals. The data markup syntax is currently exactly
the same as Test::Base.
