Test::Data -- test functions for particular variable types
use Test::Data qw(Scalar Array Hash Function);
Test::Data provides utility functions to check properties and values of data and variables.
Plug-in modules define functions for each data type. See the appropriate module.
The Test::Data module simply emports functions from Test::Data::* modules. Each module defines a self-contained function, and puts that function name into @EXPORT. Test::Data defines its own import function, but that does not matter to the plug-in modules.
If you want to write a plug-in module, follow the example of one that already exists. Name the module Test::Data::Foo, where you replace Foo with the right name. Test::Data should automatically find it.
I'm not a very good Windows Perler, so some things don't work as they should on Windows. I recently got a Windows box so I can test things, but if you run into problems, I can use all the patches or advice you care to send.
