Subject: Threads tests may not be able to spawn all the threads
X-Git-Tag: v0.11~14
X-Git-Url: http://git.vpit.fr/?p=perl%2Fmodules%2Fautovivification.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=bff16fe7ea455b013bb0e681f2852f6c11d72636

Threads tests may not be able to spawn all the threads

To work around this :
- move all the threads boilerplate to a new helper test module ;
- capture the warnings/errors that threads->create may throw and reprint
them properly as diagnostics ;
- use Test::Leaner instead of Test::More, as older Test::More sometimes
cause out of sequence bugs ;
- last but not least, do not hardcode the plan and use done_testing with
the actual number of spawned threads instead.
