NAME

Test::OpenLDAP - Creates a temporary instance of OpenLDAP's slapd daemon to run tests against.

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

This module allows easy creation and tear down of a OpenLDAP slapd instance. When the variable goes out of scope, the slapd instance is torn down and the file system objects it relies on are removed.

my $slapd = Test::OpenLDAP->new();

my $ldap = Net::LDAP->new($slapd->uri()) or Carp::croak("Failed to connect:$@");

my $mesg = $ldap->bind($slapd->admin_user(), password => $slapd->admin_password());

... add / modify / search entries

$slapd->stop();

$slapd->start();

$slapd->DESTROY();
