Test::Inline::Extract(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				Test::Inline::Extract(3pm)

NAME

       Test::Inline::Extract - Extract relevant Pod sections from source code.

DESCRIPTION

       The Test::Inline::Extract package extracts content interesting to Test::Inline from source files.

METHODS

   new $file | $source
       The "new" constructor creates a new Extract object. It is passed either a file name from which the source code would be loaded, or a
       reference to a string that directly contains source code.

       Returns a new "Test::Inline::Extract" object or "undef" on error.

   elements
	 my $elements = $Extract->elements;

       The "elements" method extracts from the Pod any parts of the file that are relevant to the extraction and generation process of
       "Test::Inline".

       The elements will be either a package statements, or a section of inline unit tests. They will only be returned if there is at least one
       section of inline unit tests.

       Returns a reference to an array of package strings and sections of inline unit tests. Returns false if there are no sections containing
       inline unit tests.

TO DO

       - For certain very complex cases, add a more intensive alternative parser based on PPI
