I have only touched the tip of the iceberg here. Beyond just pure Perl projects, you can also manage C & Perl joint projects under this infrastructure. The infrastructure is built in Perl, which means that it is extremely portable, running on platforms ranging from Linux to Windows to S/390. Once you get used to this infrastructure, you will find it totally invaluable for all the projects you work on. You will never have to write an install script again, and through the use of well formed test cases, you can have a far higher level of confidence that your program is performing the way it was intended.
