package Test::Lazy; use warnings; use strict; =head1 NAME Test::Lazy - A quick and easy way to compose and run tests with useful output. =head1 VERSION Version 0.061 =cut our $VERSION = '0.061'; =head1 SYNOPSIS use Test::Lazy qw/check try/; # Will evaluate the code and check it: try('qw/a/' => eq => 'a'); try('qw/a/' => ne => 'b'); try('qw/a/' => is => ['a']); # Don't evaluate, but still compare: check(1 => is => 1); check(0 => isnt => 1); check(a => like => qr/[a-zA-Z]/); check(0 => unlike => qr/a-zA-Z]/); check(1 => '>' => 0); check(0 => '<' => 1); # A failure example: check([qw/a b/] => is => [qw/a b c/]); # Failed test '['a','b'] is ['a','b','c']' # Compared array length of $data # got : array with 2 element(s) # expect : array with 3 element(s) # Custom test explanation: try('2 + 2' => '==' => 5, "Math is hard: %?"); # Failed test 'Math is hard: 2 + 2 == 5' # got: 4 # expected: 5 =head1 DESCRIPTION Ever get tired of coming up with a witty test message? Think that the best explanation for a test is the code behind it? Test::Lazy is for you. Test::Lazy will take a stringified piece of code, evaluate it, and use a comparator to match the result to an expectation. If the test fails, then Test::Lazy will use the code as the test explanation so you can exactly what went wrong. You can even put in your own amendment to Test::Lazy's response, just use the '%?' marker in your explanation. =head1 COMPARISON If is an ARRAY or HASH reference, then Test::Lazy will do a structure comparison, using cmp_structure as opposed to cmp_scalar. Generally, this means using Test::Deep to do the comparison. For try or check, should be one of the below: =head2 Scalar ok: Test::More::ok not_ok: ! Test::More::ok < > <= >= lt gt le ge == != eq ne: Test::More::cmp_ok is isnt like unlike: Test::More::{is,isnt,like,unlike} =head2 Structural ok: Test::More::ok not_ok: ! Test::More::ok bag same_bag samebag: Test::Deep::cmp_bag set same_set sameset: Test::Deep::cmp_set same is like eq ==: Test::Deep::cmp_deeply isnt unlink ne !=: Test::More::ok(!Test::Deep::eq_deeply) =cut BEGIN { our @EXPORT_OK = qw/check try template/; use base qw/Exporter/; } use Test::Lazy::Tester; use Test::Builder; { my $singleton; sub _singleton() { return $singleton ||= Test::Lazy::Tester->new; } *singleton = \&_singleton } =head1 EXPORTS =head2 check( , , , [ ] ) Compare to using . Optionally provide a to display on failure. If is not given, then one will be automatically made from , , and . Note, if is an ARRAY or HASH, try will do structural comparison instead of scalar comparison. check([qw/a b/] => is => [qw/a b c/]); # This will produce the following output: # Failed test '["a","b"] is ["a","b","c"]' # at __FILE__ line __LINE__. # got: '["a","b"]' # expected: '["a","b","c"]' =cut sub check { local $Test::Builder::Level = $Test::Builder::Level + 1; return _singleton->check(@_); } =head2 try( , , , [ ] ) Evaluate and compare the result to using . Optionally provide a to display on failure. If is not given, then one will be automatically made from , , and . C will also try to guess what representation is best for the result of the statement, whether that be single value, ARRAY, or HASH. It'll do this based on what is returned by the statement, and the type of . See `perldoc -m Test::Lazy` for more detail. Note, if is an ARRAY or HASH, try will do structural comparison instead of scalar comparison. try("2 + 2" => '==' => 5); # This will produce the following output: # Failed test '2 + 2 == 5' # at __FILE__ line __LINE__. # got: '4' # expected: '5' =cut sub try { local $Test::Builder::Level = $Test::Builder::Level + 1; return _singleton->try(@_); } =head2 template( ... ) Convenience function for creating a C. All arguments are directly passed to C. See L for more details. Returns a new L object. =cut sub template { return _singleton->template(@_); } =head1 METHODS =head2 Test::Lazy->singleton Access the underlying Test::Lazy::Tester object to customize comparators or renderers. Test::Lazy->singleton->cmp_scalar->{xyzzy} = sub { Test::More::cmp_ok($_[0] => eq => "xyzzy", $_[2]); }; # ... meanwhile ... check("xyzy" => "is_xyzzy"); # Failed test 'xyzy is_xyzzy' # got: 'xyzy' # expected: 'xyzzy' Returns a L object. =head1 AUTHOR Robert Krimen, C<< >> =head1 BUGS Please report any bugs or feature requests to C, or through the web interface at L.
