Perl Modules for Exceptions, and Parameter Validation

Presented by Dave Rolsky

Abstract

This talk covers a few different programming practices that can improve the quality of your code, focusing on available CPAN modules for these practices.

First, we'll cover parameter validation, assertions, and design by contract programming. Next, we'll talk about error handling, specifically return codes and exceptions.

The goal of this presentation is to help you expand your toolkit for writing reliable code in a defensive programming style.
