NAME

       Test::Excel::Template::Plus - Testing module for use with Excel::Template::Plus

SYNOPSIS

	 use Test::More tests => 1;
	 use Test::Excel::Template::Plus;

	 my $template = Excel::Template::Plus->new(
	     engine   => 'TT',
	     template => 'test.tmpl',
	     config   => { INCLUDE  => [ '/templates' ] },
	     params   => { ... }
	 );
	 $template->write_file('test.xls');

	 # compare the file we just made with
	 # an existing example file ...
	 cmp_excel_files("test.xls", "t/xls/test.xls", '... the excel files matched');

DISCLAIMER

       This module is woefully incomplete. It works for my very basic purposes right now, but it is surely going to need lots or work in the
       future to make it really usable.

DESCRIPTION

       This module attempts to provide a means of testing and comparing dynamically generated excel files. Currently it only supports comparing
       two excel files for some approximation of strutural (values within cells) and visual (formatting of said cells) equivalence.

       As a by product of the implementation, elements may get compared which don't really need comparing, and things which do need comparing may
       be skipped. This will get refined as time goes by and the module is used in more heavyweight situations.

FUNCTIONS

       cmp_excel_files($file1, $file2, $msg)

BUGS

       All complex software has bugs lurking in it, and this module is no exception. If you find a bug please either email me, or add the bug to
       cpan-RT.
