+SUMMARY="Incredibly simple helpers for testing code with exceptions"
+DESCRIPTION="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."
