NAME
testcomp - Test your tab completion
VERSION
This document describes version 0.09 of testcomp (from Perl distribution App-CompleteUtils), released on 2015-09-09.
SYNOPSIS
Usage (place caret sign (^) somewhere to place cursor):
% testcomp [testcomp-options] -- <your-script> [your-script-options]^ ...
% testcomp [testcomp-options] -- <your-script> '[your-script-options]^ ...'Examples:
% testcomp -- yourscript --opt1 val --opt2
% testcomp -Ilib -- 'yourscript --opt1^ --opt2 val'DESCRIPTION
This utility will run your script (finding it in PATH if not found in current directory) while setting COMP_LINE and COMP_POINT to test how your script will perform shell completion. In addition to that, it will also load Log::Any::Adapter::Screen and set TRACE=1 to let you see trace log messages.
You can place caret sign (^) somewhere in the argument to place cursor (set COMP_POINT)>. If no caret sign is present, COMP_POINT is put at the end of COMP_LINE.
OPTIONS
--include=dir, -I
Like Perl's -I.
SEE ALSO
You can use this utility to test scripts using these frameworks: Perinci::CmdLine, Getopt::Long::Complete, Getopt::Long::Subcommand. But actually all scripts which can complete itself by detecting COMP_LINE and COMP_POINT can be tested.
