NAME

Test::Deep::HashRec - test hash entries for required and optional fields

VERSION

version 0.004

PERL VERSION

This library should run on perls released even a long time ago. It should work on any version of perl released in the last five years.

Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the minimum required version will not be increased. The version may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.

FUNCTIONS

hashrec

cmp_deeply(
  $got,
  hashrec({
    required => { count => any(1,2,3), b => ignore() },
    optional => { name  => { first => ignore(), last => ignore() } },
  }),
  "we got a valid record",
);

hashrec returns a Test::Deep comparator that asserts that:

  • all required elements are present

  • nothing other than required and optional elements are present

  • all present elements match the comparator given for them

If you pass a true allow_unknown argument, then unknown elements will be permitted, and their values ignored.
