NAME

Data::Hive::Test - a bundle of tests for Data::Hive stores

VERSION

version 1.009

SYNOPSIS

use Test::More;

use Data::Hive::Test;
use Data::Hive::Store::MyNewStore;

Data::Hive::Test->test_new_hive({ store_class => 'MyNewStore' });

# rest of your tests for your store

done_testing;

DESCRIPTION

Data::Hive::Test is a library of tests that should be passable for any conformant Data::Hive::Store implementation. It provides a method for running a suite of tests -- which may expand or change -- that check the behavior of a hive store by building a hive around it and testing its behavior.

METHODS

test_new_hive

Data::Hive::Test->test_new_hive( $desc, \%args_to_NEW );

This method expects an (optional) description followed by a hashref of arguments to be passed to Data::Hive's NEW method. A new hive will be constructed with those arguments and a single subtest will be run, including subtests that should pass against any conformant Data::Hive::Store implementation.

If the tests pass, the method will return the hive. If they fail, the method will return false.

test_existing_hive

Data::Hive::Test->test_existing_hive( $desc, $hive );

This method behaves just like test_new_hive, but expects a hive rather than arguments to use to build one.
