talk: Perl 5.10.0 has 78,883 core tests.
Ruby has about 1,400.
1,400.
So Perl 5 core test suite has about 50 times as many tests as Ruby. So
who has the testing culture again? It's not entirely a fair comparison
because it's not asserting how many features each language has, but I
doubt that Ruby is so feature poor to justify Perl having more than 50
tests for every 1 of Ruby's.
Hello, core Ruby developers! You've got an awesome language there. Could
you start testing, please? Your community seems to do OK. Why not you?
