NAME

Test::Stream::Plugin::Exception - Simple tools to help test exceptions.

DEPRECATED

See Test::Stream::Manual::ToTest2 for a conversion guide.

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
# Loads Exception, we also need 'Core', so load that as well.
use Test::Stream qw/Core Exception/;
ok(lives { ... }, "codeblock did not die");
like(dies { die 'xxx' }, qr/xxx/, "codeblock threw expected exception");
            
          

EXPORTS

$bool = lives { ... }

If the codeblock does not throw any exception this will return true. If the codeblock does throw an exception this will return false, after printing the exception as a warning.

            

              
              
ok(lives { ... }, "codeblock did not die");
            
          

$error = dies { ... }

This will return undef if the codeblock does not throw an exception, otherwise it returns the exception. Note, if your exception is an empty string or 0 it is your responsibility to check that the error is defined instead of using a simple boolean check.

            

              
              
ok( defined dies { die 0 }, "died" );
like(dies { die 'xxx' }, qr/xxx/, "codeblock threw expected exception");
