NAME
Test::UseAllModules - do use_ok() for all the MANIFESTed modules SYNOPSIS
# basic usage use strict; use Test::UseAllModules; BEGIN { all_uses_ok(); } # if you also want to test modules under t/lib use strict; use Test::UseAllModules under => qw(lib t/lib); BEGIN { all_uses_ok(); } # if you have modules that'll fail use_ok() for themselves use strict; use Test::UseAllModules; BEGIN { all_uses_ok except => qw( Some::Dependent::Module Another::Dependent::Module ^Yet::Another::Dependent::.* # you can use regex ) } DESCRIPTION
I'm sick of writing 00_load.t (or something like that) that'll do use_ok() for every module I write. I'm sicker of updating 00_load.t when I add another file to the distro. This module reads MANIFEST to find modules to be tested and does use_ok() for each of them. Now all you have to do is update MANIFEST. You don't have to modify the test any more (hopefully). EXPORTED FUNCTION
all_uses_ok Does Test::More's use_ok() for every module found in MANIFEST. If you have modules you don't want to test, give those modules or some regex rules as the argument. The word 'except' is ignored as shown above. As of 0.11, you can also test modules under arbitrary directories by providing a directory list at the loading time (the word 'under' is ignored as shown above). Modules under the lib directory are always tested. PROTECTED FUNCTION
_get_module_list Returns module paths to test. This function will not be exported. If you want to use this (see below), you always need to call it by the full qualified name. NOTES
As of 0.03, this module calls BAIL_OUT of Test::More if any of the use_ok tests should fail. (Thus the following tests will be ignored. Missing or unloadable modules cause a lot of errors of the same kind.) As of 0.12, you can add extra tests before/after all_uses_ok() if you explicitly declare test plan like this. use strict; use warnings; use Test::More; use Test::UseAllModules; use Test::NoWarnings; plan tests => Test::UseAllModules::_get_module_list() + 1; all_uses_ok(); # and extra nowarnings test SEE ALSO
There're several modules like this on the CPAN now. Test::Compile and a bit confusing Test::LoadAllModules try to find modules to test by traversing directories. I'm not a big fun of them as they tend to find temporary or unrelated modules as well, but they may be handier especially if you're too lazy to update MANIFEST every time. AUTHOR

NAME
Test::Strict - Check syntax, presence of use strict; and test coverage SYNOPSIS
"Test::Strict" lets you check the syntax, presence of "use strict;" and presence "use warnings;" in your perl code. It report its results in standard "Test::Simple" fashion: use Test::Strict tests => 3; syntax_ok( 'bin/myscript.pl' ); strict_ok( 'My::Module', "use strict; in My::Module" ); warnings_ok( 'lib/My/Module.pm' ); Module authors can include the following in a t/strict.t and have "Test::Strict" automatically find and check all perl files in a module distribution: use Test::Strict; all_perl_files_ok(); # Syntax ok and use strict; or use Test::Strict; all_perl_files_ok( @mydirs ); "Test::Strict" can also enforce a minimum test coverage the test suite should reach. Module authors can include the following in a t/cover.t and have "Test::Strict" automatically check the test coverage: use Test::Strict; all_cover_ok( 80 ); # at least 80% coverage or use Test::Strict; all_cover_ok( 80, 't/' ); DESCRIPTION
The most basic test one can write is "does it compile ?". This module tests if the code compiles and play nice with "Test::Simple" modules. Another good practice this module can test is to "use strict;" in all perl files. By setting a minimum test coverage through "all_cover_ok()", a code author can ensure his code is tested above a preset level of kwality throughout the development cycle. Along with Test::Pod, this module can provide the first tests to setup for a module author. This module should be able to run under the -T flag for perl >= 5.6. All paths are untainted with the following pattern: "qr|^([-+@w./:\]+)$|" controlled by $Test::Strict::UNTAINT_PATTERN. FUNCTIONS
syntax_ok( $file [, $text] ) Run a syntax check on $file by running "perl -c $file" with an external perl interpreter. The external perl interpreter path is stored in $Test::Strict::PERL which can be modified. You may prefer "use_ok()" from Test::More to syntax test a module. For a module, the path (lib/My/Module.pm) or the name (My::Module) can be both used. strict_ok( $file [, $text] ) Check if $file contains a "use strict;" statement. "use Moose" and "use Mouse" are also considered valid. This is a pretty naive test which may be fooled in some edge cases. For a module, the path (lib/My/Module.pm) or the name (My::Module) can be both used. warnings_ok( $file [, $text] ) Check if warnings have been turned on. If $file is a module, check if it contains a "use warnings;" or "use warnings::..." or "use Moose" or "use Mouse" statement. If the perl version is <= 5.6, this test is skipped ("use warnings" appeared in perl 5.6). If $file is a script, check if it starts with "#!...perl -w". If the -w is not found and perl is >= 5.6, check for a "use warnings;" or "use warnings::..." or "use Moose" or "use Mouse" statement. This is a pretty naive test which may be fooled in some edge cases. For a module, the path (lib/My/Module.pm) or the name (My::Module) can be both used. all_perl_files_ok( [ @directories ] ) Applies "strict_ok()" and "syntax_ok()" to all perl files found in @directories (and sub directories). If no <@directories> is given, the starting point is one level above the current running script, that should cover all the files of a typical CPAN distribution. A perl file is *.pl or *.pm or *.t or a file starting with "#!...perl" If the test plan is defined: use Test::Strict tests => 18; all_perl_files_ok(); the total number of files tested must be specified. You can control which tests are run on each perl site through: $Test::Strict::TEST_SYNTAX (default = 1) $Test::Strict::TEST_STRICT (default = 1) $Test::Strict::TEST_WARNINGS (default = 0) $Test::Strict::TEST_SKIP (default = []) "Trusted" files to skip all_cover_ok( [coverage_threshold [, @t_dirs]] ) This will run all the tests in @t_dirs (or current script's directory if @t_dirs is undef) under Devel::Cover and calculate the global test coverage of the code loaded by the tests. If the test coverage is greater or equal than "coverage_threshold", it is a pass, otherwise it's a fail. The default coverage threshold is 50 (meaning 50% of the code loaded has been covered by test). The threshold can be modified through $Test::Strict::COVERAGE_THRESHOLD. You may want to select which files are selected for code coverage through $Test::Strict::DEVEL_COVER_OPTIONS, see Devel::Cover for the list of available options. The default is '+ignore,"/Test/Strict"'. The path to "cover" utility can be modified through $Test::Strict::COVER. The 50% threshold is a completely arbitrary value, which should not be considered as a good enough coverage. The total coverage is the return value of "all_cover_ok()". CAVEATS
For "all_cover_ok()" to work properly, it is strongly advised to install the most recent version of Devel::Cover and use perl 5.8.1 or above. In the case of a "make test" scenario, "all_perl_files_ok()" re-run all the tests in a separate perl interpreter, this may lead to some side effects. SEE ALSO
