SED replacement

Hi,

i have a file with lines,

file.txt

testing is better

I need to replace 'test' to 'develop' and i used,

NAME
Test::CheckDeps - Check for presence of dependencies VERSION
version 0.010 SYNOPSIS
use Test::More 0.94; use Test::CheckDeps 0.007; check_dependencies(); done_testing(); DESCRIPTION
This module adds a test that assures all dependencies have been installed properly. If requested, it can bail out all testing on error. FUNCTIONS
check_dependencies( [ level ]) Check dependencies based on a local MYMETA or META file. The "level" argument is optional. It can be one of: o requires All 'requires' dependencies are checked (the configure, build, test and runtime phases are always checked, and the develop phase is also tested when AUTHOR_TESTING is set) o classic As "requires", but 'conflicts' dependencies are also checked. o recommends As "classic", but 'recommends' dependencies are also checked, as TODO tests. o suggests As "recommends", but 'suggests' dependencies are also checked, as TODO tests. When not provided, "level" defaults to "classic" ('requires' and 'conflicts' dependencies are checked). check_dependencies_opts($meta, $phase, $type) Check dependencies in CPAN::Meta object $meta for phase $phase (configure, build, test, runtime, develop) and type $type(requires, recommends, suggests, conflicts). You probably just want to use "check_dependencies" though. AUTHOR
