Perl Training Australia - Enterprise Perl

Trainers:	Paul Fenwick Jacinta Richardson
Length:	5 days
Target Audience:	Perl programmers with a thorough understanding and at least 3 months practice of the material in our Programming Perl course. This course will bring you up to date with modern standards of Perl programming. This course assumes a thorough understanding of all the concepts in our Programming Perl course. You must be able to program, and you must have programmed regularly in Perl at some point, even if you do not do so currently.

This course is still under production and details may change.

You already know Perl. You write in Perl regularly, you may have even released some code to the CPAN but are you sure you're doing it right? Languages and techniques evolve over time, and Perl is no exception.

This course will cover many of the best modern and practical techniques in Perl, including:

How to gain feedback and enforce coding standards with Perl::Critic.
Starting your project on the right foot, without repeating yourself, using Module::Starter.
Module documentation and POD.
Test-driven development, test coverage, advanced testing.
Fundamentals of old-style object orientation.
Using Moose for flexible object oriented design, including inheritance, roles, types and coercion, and how to integrate with old-style OO.
Error handling code with autodie and Try::Tiny.
Wizardly work with databases, using DBI and DBIx::Class.
Profiling your code with Devel::NYTProf, and examining your test suite coverage with Devel::Cover.
How to bundle your code and dependencies with PAR, the Perl Archiver.
