See primary documentation in context for sub diag

sub diag($message)

Display diagnostic information in a TAP-compatible manner on the standard error stream. This is usually used when a particular test has failed to provide information that the test itself did not provide. Or it can be used to provide visual markers on how the testing of a test-file is progressing (which can be important when doing stress testing).
