sms::send::test
SMS::Send::Test(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation SMS::Send::Test(3pm)
NAME
SMS::Send::Test - SMS::Send International-Class Testing Driver
SYNOPSIS
# Create a testing sender
my $send = SMS::Send->new( 'Test' );
# Clear the message trap
$send->clear;
# Send a message
$send->send_sms(
text => 'Hi there',
to => '+61(4) 1234 5678',
);
# Get the message from the trap
my @messages = $send->messages;
DESCRIPTION
SMS::Send supports two classes of drivers.
An international class named in the format "SMS::Send::Foo", which only accept international numbers in "+1 XXX XXXXX" format, and
regional-context drivers in the format "SMS::Send::XX::Foo" which will also accept a non-leading-plus number in the format applicable
within that region (in the above case, Australia).
SMS::Send::Test is the testing driver for the international class of drivers. Except for the name, it is otherwise identical to
SMS::Send::AU::Test.
Its two roles are firstly to always exist (be installed) and secondly to act as a "trap" for messages. Messages sent via SMS::Send::Test
always succeed, and the messages can be recovered for testing after sending.
Note that the trap is done on a per-driver-handle basis, and is not shared between multiple driver handles.
METHODS
SMS::Send::Test inherits all the methods of the parent SMS::Send::Driver class, and adds the following.
messages
The "messages" method retrieves as a list all of the messages in the message trap.
clear
The "clear" method clears the message trap. This should be done before each chunk of test code to ensure you are starting from a known
state.
Returns true as a convenience.
