Version 0.34

DESCRIPTION

Plans mock strategy for each method that has external side effects, based on side effect analysis metadata in the schema. Methods that call external commands are assigned a system mock; methods that perform IO are assigned IO capture. Used by App::Test::Generator::Emitter::Perl to generate appropriate mock setup code in the test output.

new

Construct a new Mock planner.

my $planner = App::Test::Generator::Planner::Mock->new;

Arguments

None.

Returns

A blessed hashref.

API specification

input

{}

output

{
    type => OBJECT,
    isa  => 'App::Test::Generator::Planner::Mock',
}

plan

Produce a mock plan for each method that requires external mocking, based on side effect analysis metadata in the schema.

my $planner   = App::Test::Generator::Planner::Mock->new;
my $mock_plan = $planner->plan($schema);

for my $method (keys %{$mock_plan}) {
    printf "%s: %s\n", $method, $mock_plan->{$method};
}

Arguments

• $schema

  A hashref of method schemas, each optionally containing a _analysis key with a side_effects sub-key as produced by App::Test::Generator::Analyzer::SideEffect.

Returns

A hashref mapping method names to mock strategy strings. Only methods that require mocking appear in the output — pure methods are omitted.

Currently supported strategy values are mock_system and capture_io. If a method both calls external commands and performs IO, mock_system takes precedence. This is a known limitation and may be revised in a future version to support multiple strategies per method.

    type => HASHREF,
    keys => {
        '*' => { type => SCALAR },
    },
