-Description: subtests that you can die your way out of ... but survive
- (no description was found)
+Description: module to handle subtest failures with exceptions
+ Test::Abortable provides a simple system for catching some exceptions and
+ turning them into test events. It provides a means to communicate, via
+ exceptions, that the running subtest should be aborted, possibly with some
+ test output, and that the program should then continue.
  .
- This description was automagically extracted from the module by dh-make-perl.
+ Test::Abortable exports a subtest() routine that behaves like the one in
+ Test::More but will handle and recover from abortable exceptions. It also
+ exports testeval(), which behaves like a block eval that only catches
+ abortable exceptions.
