376 | Test::Harness - run perl standard test scripts with statistics |

379 | |

383 | |
384 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
385 | |
7b13a3f5 |
386 | (By using the L<Test> module, you can write test scripts without |
387 | knowing the exact output this module expects. However, if you need to |
388 | know the specifics, read on!) |
389 | |
cb1a09d0 |
390 | Perl test scripts print to standard output C<"ok N"> for each single |
391 | test, where C<N> is an increasing sequence of integers. The first line |
c0ee6f5c |
392 | output by a standard test script is C<"1..M"> with C<M> being the |
cb1a09d0 |
393 | number of tests that should be run within the test |
c0ee6f5c |
394 | script. Test::Harness::runtests(@tests) runs all the testscripts |
cb1a09d0 |
395 | named as arguments and checks standard output for the expected |
396 | C<"ok N"> strings. |
397 | |

398 | After all tests have been performed, runtests() prints some |
cb1a09d0 |
399 | performance statistics that are computed by the Benchmark module. |

401 | =head2 The test script output |
402 | |
403 | Any output from the testscript to standard error is ignored and |
404 | bypassed, thus will be seen by the user. Lines written to standard |
c0ee6f5c |
405 | output containing C</^(not\s+)?ok\b/> are interpreted as feedback for |
406 | runtests(). All other lines are discarded. |

407 | |
408 | It is tolerated if the test numbers after C<ok> are omitted. In this |
409 | case Test::Harness maintains temporarily its own counter until the |
410 | script supplies test numbers again. So the following test script |
411 | |
412 | print <<END; |
413 | 1..6 |
414 | not ok |
415 | ok |
416 | not ok |
417 | ok |
418 | ok |
419 | END |
420 | |
421 | will generate |
422 | |
423 | FAILED tests 1, 3, 6 |
424 | Failed 3/6 tests, 50.00% okay |
425 | |
426 | The global variable $Test::Harness::verbose is exportable and can be |
c0ee6f5c |
427 | used to let runtests() display the standard output of the script |
6c31b336 |
428 | without altering the behavior otherwise. |

430 | The global variable $Test::Harness::switches is exportable and can be |
431 | used to set perl command line options used for running the test |
432 | script(s). The default value is C<-w>. |
433 | |

434 | If the standard output line contains substring C< # Skip> (with |
435 | variations in spacing and case) after C<ok> or C<ok NUMBER>, it is |
436 | counted as a skipped test. If the whole testscript succeeds, the |
437 | count of skipped tests is included in the generated output. |
438 | |
45c0de28 |
439 | C<Test::Harness> reports the text after C< # Skip(whatever)> as a |
440 | reason for skipping. Similarly, one can include a similar explanation |
441 | in a C<1..0> line emitted if the test is skipped completely: |
442 | |
443 | 1..0 # Skipped: no leverage found |

478 | |
17a79f5b |
479 | Setting C<HARNESS_IGNORE_EXITCODE> makes harness ignore the exit status |
9b0ceca9 |
480 | of child processes. |
481 | |
0d0c0d42 |
482 | Setting C<HARNESS_NOTTY> to a true value forces it to behave as though |
483 | STDOUT were not a console. You may need to set this if you don't want |
484 | harness to output more frequent progress messages using carriage returns. |
485 | Some consoles may not handle carriage returns properly (which results |
486 | in a somewhat messy output). |
487 | |
c529f79d |
488 | Setting C<HARNESS_COMPILE_TEST> to a true value will make harness attempt |
489 | to compile the test using C<perlcc> before running it. |
490 | |
17a79f5b |
491 | If C<HARNESS_FILELEAK_IN_DIR> is set to the name of a directory, harness |
492 | will check after each test whether new files appeared in that directory, |
493 | and report them as |
494 | |
495 | LEAKED FILES: scr.tmp 0 my.db |
496 | |
497 | If relative, directory name is with respect to the current directory at |
498 | the moment runtests() was called. Putting absolute path into |
499 | C<HARNESS_FILELEAK_IN_DIR> may give more predicatable results. |
500 | |
f19ae7a7 |
501 | Harness sets C<HARNESS_ACTIVE> before executing the individual tests. |
502 | This allows the tests to determine if they are being executed through the |
503 | harness or by any other means. |

511 | |
512 | Either Tim Bunce or Andreas Koenig, we don't know. What we know for |
513 | sure is, that it was inspired by Larry Wall's TEST script that came |
b876d4a6 |
514 | with perl distributions for ages. Numerous anonymous contributors |
515 | exist. Current maintainer is Andreas Koenig. |

518 | |
519 | Test::Harness uses $^X to determine the perl binary to run the tests |
6c31b336 |
520 | with. Test scripts running via the shebang (C<#!>) line may not be |
521 | portable because $^X is not consistent for shebang scripts across |
cb1a09d0 |
522 | platforms. This is no problem when Test::Harness is run with an |
6c31b336 |
523 | absolute path to the perl binary or when $^X can be found in the path. |
