DESCRIPTION

This is a Test::Routine-based role for testing Dist::Zilla and its plugins. It creates dist.ini file with specified content in a temporary directory, populates the directory with specified files, runs "build" command with testing version of Dist::Zilla in the temporary directory, checks actual exception and log messages do match expected ones, and let you write other checks specific for your plugin.

OBJECT METHODS

Build

It is a test routine. It runs "build" command, then checks actual exception and log messages match expected ones. Expected exception and log messages should be specified as keys in expected hash, e. g.:

    run_me {
        …
        expected => {
            exception => $exception,
            messages => [
                $message,
                …
            ],
        },
    };

If exception key is not specified (or exception value is undef), build is expected to complete successfully (i. e. with no exception), otherwise build is expected to fail with the specified exception.

If messages key is not specified, log messages are not checked. Actual log messages are retrieved with messages method so you can filter them before comparison with expected messages by defining message_filter attribute and/or by overriding messages method.

Exception (if not undef) and log messages are compared with expected counterparts by using cmp_deeply (from Test::Deep module).
