NAME

Test::Rinci - Test Rinci metadata

VERSION

This document describes version 0.08 of Test::Rinci (from Perl distribution Test-Rinci), released on 2014-07-18.

SYNOPSIS

To check all metadata in a module:

use Test::Rinci tests=>1;
metadata_in_module_ok("Foo::Bar", {opt => ...}, $msg);

Alternatively, you can check all metadata in all modules in a distro:

# save in release-rinci.t, put in distro's t/ subdirectory
use Test::More;
plan skip_all => "Not release testing" unless $ENV{RELEASE_TESTING};
eval "use Test::Rinci";
plan skip_all => "Test::Rinci required for testing Rinci metadata" if $@;
metadata_in_all_modules_ok({opt => ...}, $msg);

DESCRIPTION

This module performs various checks on a module's Rinci metadata. It is recommended that you include something like release-rinci.t in your distribution if you add metadata to your code. If you use Dist::Zilla to build your distribution, there is Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Test::Rinci to make it easy to do so.

FUNCTIONS

All these functions are exported by default.

metadata_in_module_ok($module [, \%opts ] [, $msg])

Load $module, get its metadata, and perform test on all of them. For function metadata, a wrapping to the function is done to see if it can be wrapped.

Available options:

  • test_package_metadata => BOOL (default: 1)

    Whether to test package metadata found in module.

  • exclude_packages => REGEX/ARRAY

    List of packages to exclude from testing.

  • test_function_metadata => BOOL (default: 1)

    Whether to test function metadata found in module. Currently require wrap_function option to be turned on, as the tests are done to the metadata generated by the wrapper (for convenience, since the wrapper can convert old v1.0 metadata to v1.1).

  • wrap_function => BOOL (default: 1)

    Whether to wrap function (using Perinci::Sub::Wrapper). All tests which run module's functions require this option to be turned on.

  • test_function_examples => BOOL (default: 1)

    Whether to test examples in function metadata, by running each example and comparing the specified result with actual result. Will only take effect when test_function_metadata and wrap_functions is turned on.

  • exclude_functions => REGEX/ARRAY

    List of functions to exclude from testing.

  • test_variable_metadata => BOOL (default: 1)

    Whether to test function metadata found in module.

  • exclude_variables => REGEX/ARRAY

    List of variables to exclude from testing.

metadata_in_all_modules_ok([ \%opts ] [, $msg])

Look for modules in directory lib (or blib instead, if it exists), and run metadata_in_module_ok() on each of them.

Options are the same as in metadata_in_module_ok().
