NAME

Test::Stream::DebugInfo - Debug information for events

EXPERIMENTAL CODE WARNING

This is an experimental release! Test-Stream, and all its components are still in an experimental phase. This dist has been released to cpan in order to allow testers and early adopters the chance to write experimental new tools with it, or to add experimental support for it into old tools.

PLEASE DO NOT COMPLETELY CONVERT OLD TOOLS YET. This experimental release is very likely to see a lot of code churn. API's may break at any time. Test-Stream should NOT be depended on by any toolchain level tools until the experimental phase is over.

DESCRIPTION

All events need to have access to information about where they were created, as well as if they are todo, or part of a skipped test. This object represents that information.

SYNOPSIS

    use Test::Stream::DebugInfo;

    my $dbg = Test::Stream::DebugInfo->new(
        frame => [$package, $file, $line, $subname],
    );

METHODS

$dbg->set_todo($reason)

$reason = $dbg->todo

Get/Set/Unset todo for the current debug-info.

$dbg->set_skip($reason)

$reason = $dbg->skip

Get/Set/Unset skip for the current debug-info.

$dbg->set_detail($msg)

$msg = $dbg->detail

Used to get/set a custom trace message that will be used INSTEAD of at <FILE> line <LINE> when calling $dbg->trace.

$dbg->trace

Typically returns the string at <FILE> line <LINE>. If detail is set then its value wil be returned instead.

$dbg->alert($MESSAGE)

This issues a warning at the frame (filename and line number where errors should be reported).

$dbg->throw($MESSAGE)

This throws an exception at the frame (filename and line number where errors should be reported).

$frame = $dbg->frame()

Get the call frame arrayref.

($package, $file, $line, $subname) = $dbg->call()

Get the caller details for the debug-info. This is where errors should be reported.

$pkg = $dbg->package

Get the debug-info package.

$file = $dbg->file

$line = $dbg->line

Get the debug-info line number.
