The tests do not exercise all execution paths. :(

In our new coding practices, we try to separate diagnostics and
issuance like this (please see the use of the array @empty), but there
is legacy code:

    my @all = keys %{$self->processable->field};
    my @empty = grep { $self->processable->field($_) =~ /^\s*$/ } @all;

    $self->tag('empty-field', $_) for @empty;

What is 'wml', please? Maybe I should use it too. :)

Kind regards
