NAME

Test::Builder2::History - Manage the history of test results

SYNOPSIS

use Test::Builder2::History;

# This is a shared singleton object
my $history = Test::Builder2::History->singleton;
my $result  = Test::Builder2::Result->new_result( pass => 1 );

$history->accept_result( $result );
$history->is_passing;

DESCRIPTION

This object stores and manages the history of test results.

METHODS

Constructors

singleton

my $history = Test::Builder2::History->singleton;
Test::Builder2::History->singleton($history);

Gets/sets the shared instance of the history object.

Test::Builder2::History is a singleton. singleton() will return the same object every time so all users can have a shared history. If you want your own history, call create() instead.

create

my $history = Test::Builder2::History->create;

Creates a new, unique History object.

Accessors

Unless otherwise stated, these are all accessor methods of the form:

my $value = $history->method;       # get
$history->method($value);           # set

Events

events

A Test::Builder2::Stack of events, that include Result objects.

accept_event

Push an event to the events stack.

event_count

Get the count of events that are on the stack.

Results

results

A Test::Builder2::Stack of Result objects.

# The result of test #4.
my $result = $history->results->[3];

accept_result

Add a result object to the end stack,

result_count

Get the count of results stored in the stack.

NOTE: This could be diffrent from the number of tests that have been seen, to get that count use test_count.

has_results

Returns true if we have stored results, false otherwise.

Statistics

test_count

A count of the number of tests that have been added to results. This value is not guaranteed to be the same as results_count if you have altered the results_stack. This is a static counter of the number of tests that have been seen, not the number of results stored.

pass_count

A count of the number of passed tests have been added to results.

fail_count

A count of the number of failed tests have been added to results.

todo_count

A count of the number of TODO tests have been added to results.

skip_count

A count of the number of SKIP tests have been added to results.

is_passing

Returns true if we have not yet seen a failing test.

HISTORY INTERACTION

consume

$history->consume($old_history);

Appends $old_history results in to $history's results stack.
