SYNOPSIS

    use Test::CGI::Multipart;
    use Test::CGI::Multipart::Gen::Text;

    my $tcm = Test::CGI::Multipart;

    # specify the form parameters
    $tcm->upload_file(
        name='cv',
        file=>'cv.doc',
        paragraphs=>6,
        type=>'text/plain'
    );
    $tcm->set_param(name=>'first_name',value=>'Jim');
    $tcm->set_param(name=>'last_name',value=>'Hacker');

    # Behind the scenes this will fake the browser and web server behaviour
    # with regard to environment variables, MIME format and standard input.
    my $cgi = $tcm->create_cgi;

    # Okay now we have a CGI object which we can pass into the code 
    # that needs testing and run the form handling various tests.
