NAME

Test::BrewBuild::Tester - Daemonized testing service for dispatched test run execution, for Windows & Unix.

DESCRIPTION

Builds and puts into the background a Test::BrewBuild remote tester listening service.

Note that by default, the working directory is ~/brewbuild on all platforms.

METHODS

new

Returns a new Test::BrewBuild::Tester object.

Parameters:

debug => $level

Integer, optional. Debug level from least verbose (0) to maximum verbosity (7).

stdout => $bool

Integer, optional. By default, we return the test log/debug output with the results of the test run. Set this to true (1) to disable this, and have the tester print its output directly to STDOUT instead.

logfile => $bool

Integer, optional. Set this to true (1) and we'll write all tester output to a log file. The parent tester server will create a $workdir/bbtester_parent.log file (where $workdir is ~/brewbuild by default), and the children tester runners will all log to $workdir/bbtester_child.log.

start

Starts the tester, and puts it into the background.

stop

Stops the tester and all of its processes.

status

Returns 1 if there's a tester currently running, and 0 if not.

ip($ip)

Default listening IP address is 0.0.0.0 ie. all currently bound IPs. Send in an alternate IP address to listen on a specific one.

This will override any IP information in the configuration file, if present.

Returns the currently used IP.

port($port)

Default port is 7800. Send in an alternate to listen on it instead.

This will override any port information in the configuration file, if present.

Returns the port currently being used.

listen

This is the actual service that listens for and processes requests.

By default, listens on all IP addresses bound to all network interfaces, on port 7800.
