test::json

Test::JSON(3pm) 					User Contributed Perl Documentation					   Test::JSON(3pm)

NAME

       Test::JSON - Test JSON data

VERSION

       Version 0.11

SYNOPSIS

	use Test::JSON;

	is_valid_json $json,		     '... json is well formed';
	is_json       $json, $expected_json, '... and it matches what we expected';

EXPORT

       o   is_valid_json

       o   is_json

DESCRIPTION

       JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) is a lightweight data interchange format.  Test::JSON makes it easy to verify that you have built valid
       JSON and that it matches your expected output.

       See <http://www.json.org/> for more information.

TESTS

   is_valid_json
	is_valid_json $json, '... json is well formed';

       Test passes if the string passed is valid JSON.

   is_json
	is_json $json, $expected_json, '... and it matches what we expected';

       Test passes if the two JSON strings are valid JSON and evaluate to the same data structure.

       Test::Differences is used to provide easy diagnostics of why the JSON structures did not match.	For example:

	  Failed test '... and identical JSON should match'
	  in t/10testjson.t at line 14.
