[Bioperl-l] need info

[Heikki Lehvaslaiho]

Richard,


The modules.pl really could check for public methods and it could try to find 
from t files which have been tested. That would be quite useful, but only 
after we can clean up the module level testing output sufficiently. 

I've been thinking extending the current code in modules.pl to recursively 
tick tested all modules that are used or inherited from, but have not written 
any code, yet.

Please go ahead and try to get something together along the lines you've been 
thinking.
