The question is about how to start a new Perl project.

• How should I create the skeleton of the Project?
• What should the directory layout look like?
• How do I start testing?
• What build system should I use?
• Should I even use a build system?

I have been writing Perl programs for a while now. I only started to run tests on my recent programs. I know Perl the language fairly well, now it is time to learn the way to build full blown Perl projects.

I already add these to the beginning of every Perl file:

use strict;
use warnings;
# and occasionally
use autodie;

I have also used Moose.
