NAME

Test2::Formatter - Namespace for formatters.

EXPERIMENTAL RELEASE

This is an experimental release. Using this right now is not recommended.

DESCRIPTION

This is the namespace for formatters. This is an empty package.

CREATING FORMATTERS

A formatter is any package or object with a write($event, $num) method.

package Test2::Formatter::Foo;
use strict;
use warnings;

sub write {
    my $self_or_class = shift;
    my ($event, $assert_num) = @_;
    ...
}

sub hide_buffered { 1 }

1;

The write method is a method, so it either gets a class or instance. The 2 arguments are the $event object it should record, and the $assert_num which is the number of the current assertion (ok), or the last assertion if this even is not itself an assertion. The assertion number may be any inyeger 0 or greator, and may be undefined in some cases.

The hide_buffered() method must return a boolean. This is used to tell buffered subtests wether or not to send it events as they are being buffered. See "run_subtest(...)" in Test2::API for more information.
