Log::Any::Test(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				       Log::Any::Test(3pm)

NAME
Log::Any::Test -- Test what you're logging with Log::Any SYNOPSIS
use Test::More; use Log::Any::Test; # should appear before 'use Log::Any'! use Log::Any qw($log); # ... # call something that logs using Log::Any # ... # now test to make sure you logged the right things $log->contains_ok(qr/good log message/, "good message was logged"); $log->does_not_contain_ok(qr/unexpected log message/, "unexpected message was not logged"); $log->empty_ok("no more logs"); # or my $msgs = $log->msgs; cmp_deeply($msgs, [{message => 'msg1', level => 'debug'}, ...]); DESCRIPTION
"Log::Any::Test" is a simple module that allows you to test what has been logged with Log::Any. Most of its API and implementation have been taken from Log::Any::Dispatch. Using "Log::Any::Test" sends all subsequent Log::Any log messages to a single global in-memory buffer. It should be used before Log::Any. METHODS
The test_name is optional in the *_ok methods; a reasonable default will be provided. msgs () Returns the current contents of the global log buffer as an array reference, where each element is a hash containing a category, level, and message key. e.g. { category => 'Foo', level => 'error', message => 'this is an error' }, { category => 'Bar::Baz', level => 'debug', message => 'this is a debug' } contains_ok ($regex[, $test_name]) Tests that a message in the log buffer matches $regex. On success, the message is removed from the log buffer (but any other matches are left untouched). does_not_contain_ok ($regex[, $test_name]) Tests that no message in the log buffer matches $regex. empty_ok ([$test_name]) Tests that there is no log buffer left. On failure, the log buffer is cleared to limit further cascading failures. contains_only_ok ($regex[, $test_name]) Tests that there is a single message in the log buffer and it matches $regex. On success, the message is removed. clear () Clears the log buffer. SEE ALSO
