Test::TAPv13 - provide TAP v13 support to test scripts
use Test::TAPv13 ':all'; # before other Test::* modules use Test::More tests => 2; my $data = { affe => { tiger => 111, birne => "amazing", loewe => [ qw( one two three) ], }, zomtec => "here's another one", }; ok(1, "hot stuff"); tap13_yaml($data); tap13_pragma "+strict"; ok(1, "more hot stuff");
This would create TAP like this:
TAP version 13 1..2 ok 1 - hot stuff --- affe: birne: amazing loewe: - one - two - three tiger: 111 zomtec: 'here''s another one' ... pragma +strict ok 2 - more hot stuff
For example
tap13_yaml($data);
prints out an indented YAML block of the data, like this:
--- affe: birne: amazing kram: - one - two - three one: 111 zomtec: "here's another one" ...
To make it meaningful, e.g. in a TAP::DOM, you should do that directly after an actual test line to which this data block will belong as a child.
tap13_pragma("+strict");
prints out a TAP pragma line:
pragma +strict
You most probably do not want or need this, but anyway, the +strict pragma is part of the TAP v13 specification and makes the TAP parser fail on non-TAP (unknown) lines.
+strict
Not to be called directly in your scripts as it is called implicitely as soon you use Test::TAP13.
use Test::TAP13
Prints out the version statement
TAP version 13
This module is to utilize TAP version 13 features in your test scripts.
TAP, the Test Anything Protocol, allows some new elements beginning with version 13. The most prominent one is to embed data as indented YAML blocks.
This module automatically declares TAP version 13 first in the TAP stream which is needed to tell the TAP::Parser to actually parse those new features. With some utility functions you can then actually include data, etc.
