Test::Output - Utilities to test STDOUT and STDERR messages.
Version 0.01
use Test::More tests => 4; use Test::Output; sub writer { print "Write out.\n"; print STDERR "Error out.\n"; } output_is( \&writer, "Write out.\n", "Error out.\n", 'Test STDOUT & STDERR' ); stdout_is(\&writer,"Write out.\n",'Test STDOUT'); stderr_is(sub { print "This is STDOUT\n"; writer(); }, "Error out.\n",'Test STDERR');
Test::Output provides functions to test date sent to both STDOUT and STDERR.
Test::Output ties STDOUT and STDERR using Test::Output::Tie.
All functions are exported.
output_is( $coderef, $expected_stdout, $expected_stderr, 'comment' );
output_is() compares the output of $coderef to $expected_stdout and $expected_stderr, and fails if they do not match.
stderr_is( $coderef, $expected, 'comment' );
stdout_is() is similar to output_is() except that it only compares $expected to STDOUT captured from $codref.
stderr_is() is similar to output_is(), and stdout_is() except that it only compares $expected to STDERR captured from $codref.
