## DESCRIPTION

Test::SharedFork is utility module for Test::Builder.

This module makes [**fork**(2)](/fork/2.md) safety in your test case.

This module merges test count with parent process & child process.

## LIMITATIONS

This version of the Test::SharedFork does not support ithreads, because threads::shared conflicts with Storable.
