NAME

Test2::Harness::Runner::DepTracer - Tool for tracing module dependencies as they are loaded.

DESCRIPTION

This tool is used by Test2::Harness to build a graph of dependancies which can then be used to blacklist modified modules (and anything thatuses them) when they change under a preloaded runner.

SYNOPSIS

    use Test2::Harness::Runner::DepTracer;

    my $dt = Test2::Harness::Runner::DepTracer->new();

    $dt->start();

    require Some::Thing;

    $dt->stop();

    my $dep_map = $dt->dep_map;

    my $loaded_by = $dep_map->{'Some/Thing.pm'};
    print "Some::Thing was directly or indirectly loaded by:\n" . join("\n" => @$loaded_by) . "\n";

ATTRIBUTES

These can be specified at construction, and will be populated during use.

$hashref = $dt->exclude

A hashref of files/modules to exclude from dep tracking. By default strict and warnings are excluded.

$hashref = $dt->dep_map

Every file which is loaded while the tool is started will have an entry in this hash, each value is an array of all files which loaded the key file directly or indirectly.

$hashref = $dt->loaded

How many times each file was directly loaded.

METHODS

$dt->start

Start tracking modules which are loaded.

$dt->stop

Stop tracking moduels that are loaded.
