Shell Monitoring Script

The request seems ambiguous on several points, and I don't have any reason to think my crystal ball is any clearer than yours. Presumably, you know where this request came from and you have some insight into what they want. If that is true, your crystal is probably a lot clearer than mine.
At first glance I would say it is asking for the number of files in the 5 directories associated with the current minute, the previous minute, the minute before that, the minute before that, and the minute before that. Or maybe you should skip the current minute and just look at the 5 previous minutes (so file counts aren't artificially low due to the current minute being incomplete and files may still be added after you complete the count).
But:Good luck.

But:
- Why say "count the number of files in the given directory" instead of "count the number of files in the given directories"?
- Does "(events_storage/files_constant_patterns)" mean that instead of counting files in events/files_detected/2010/11/02/07/53 you should count files in events/files_detected/2010/11/02/07/53/events_storage/files_constant_patterns? Or in events/files_detected/2010/11/02/07/53/files_constant_patterns and in events/files_detected/2010/11/02/07/53/events_storage? Or does it mean that there are several types of files and you're only supposed to count files that are events_storage files or files_constant_patterns file? If so, what are events_storage files and files_constant_patterns files and how do you identify them?
- Are the directory names based on local time or coordinated universal time? If it is local time and you are in a place where daylight savings time is observed, you will have one hour each year when files will be added to the directory during two different minutes. Are you supposed to adjust the limits during the second hour when files are being added to those directories? And, if so, what adjustments are you supposed to make?
- Etc.

test::script
Test::Script(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Test::Script(3pm) NAME
Test::Script - Basic cross-platform tests for scripts DESCRIPTION
The intent of this module is to provide a series of basic tests for 80% of the testing you will need to do for scripts in the script (or bin as is also commonly used) paths of your Perl distribution. Further, it aims to provide this functionality with perfect platform-compatibility, and in a way that is as unobtrusive as possible. That is, if the program works on a platform, then Test::Script should always work on that platform as well. Anything less than 100% is considered unacceptable. In doing so, it is hoped that Test::Script can become a module that you can safely make a dependency of all your modules, without risking that your module won't on some platform because of the dependency. Where a clash exists between wanting more functionality and maintaining platform safety, this module will err on the side of platform safety. FUNCTIONS
script_compiles script_compiles( 'script/foo.pl', 'Main script compiles' ); The "script_compiles" test calls the script with "perl -c script.pl", and checks that it returns without error. The path it should be passed is a relative unix-format script name. This will be localised when running "perl -c" and if the test fails the local name used will be shown in the diagnostic output. Note also that the test will be run with the same perl interpreter that is running the test script (and not with the default system perl). This will also be shown in the diagnostic output on failure. script_runs script_runs( 'script/foo.pl', 'Main script runs' ); The "script_runs" test executes the script with "perl script.pl" and checks that it returns success. The path it should be passed is a relative unix-format script name. This will be localised when running "perl -c" and if the test fails the local name used will be shown in the diagnostic output. The test will be run with the same perl interpreter that is running the test script (and not with the default system perl). This will also be shown in the diagnostic output on failure. SUPPORT
