[Catalyst] Test server as a child process

[Peter Edwards]

Try using IPC::Run. I can see the "You can connect" message when using it to
run scripts/myapp_server.pl (I guess it goes through ptys?)

Regards, Peter

Subject: [Catalyst] Test server as a child process

Hello,

I intend to write a script, that would start the test server as a
child process and then run tests. The thing I'm failing to do is to
get output from the test server in order to determine, when the server
has started.

The problem is that test server doesn't print its prompt ("You can
connect to your server at http://localhost:3000") when run as a child
process :-(

I dug Catalyst's sources, but didn't understood much. I put 'sleep' in
parent process for now, but I don't like it. Could anyone suggest an
adequate work-around? Thank you in advance.
