Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

Test::Fatal is an alternative to the popular Test::Exception. It does much less, but should allow greater flexibility in testing exception-throwing code with about the same amount of typing. It exports one routine by default: 'exception'. *Achtung!* 'exception' intentionally does not manipulate the call stack. User-written test functions that use 'exception' must be careful to avoid false positives if exceptions use stack traces that show arguments. For a more magical approach involving globally overriding 'caller', see Test::Exception.
