It doesn't do much more than that. pod2test does the +useful work. + +After creating a Pod::Tests object, you parse the POD by calling one of +the available parsing methods documented below. You can call parse as many +times as you'd like, all examples and tests found will stack up inside the +object. + +Once extracted, the tests can be built into stand-alone testing code using +the build_tests() and build_examples() methods.
