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.

Ingy has released 5 new versions in the last four days.  I'll review this version, but would be happy if you want to upgrade to the most recent version.

Comment 2 David Dick 2014-08-07 10:32:53 UTC
License is good.

Package builds at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=7253979

rpmlint reports incorrect spelling mistakes and one acceptable one.

recommend replacing "superset" with "super set" or "super-set" in %description

Build and RunTime requires are correct.

There are no additional Build or RunTime requires in 0.42 (latest version) and no license differences either.

Package APPROVED.

Thank you for the review and the repository.

I suppressed the false rpmlint warnings and upgraded the package to 0.42.

Complete.

I've requested that it be fixed, I don't have the requisite pkgdb2
knowledge.
