NAME

       WWW::Mechanize::FormFiller::Value::Random::Date - Fill a timestamp into an HTML form field

SYNOPSIS

	 use WWW::Mechanize::FormFiller;
	 use WWW::Mechanize::FormFiller::Value::Random::Date;

	 my $f = WWW::Mechanize::FormFiller->new();

	 # Create a random value for the HTML field "born"

	 my $born = WWW::Mechanize::FormFiller::Value::Random::Date->new(
	   born => string => '%Y%m%d', min => '20000101', max => '20373112' );
	 $f->add_value( born => $born );

	 # Alternatively take the following shorthand, which adds the
	 # field to the list as well :

	 # If there is no password, put a random one out of the list there
	 my $last_here = $f->add_filler( last_here => Random::Date => string => '%H%M%S', min => '000000', max => 'now');

DESCRIPTION

       This class provides a way to write a randomly chosen value into a HTML field.

       new NAME, %ARGS
	   Creates a new value which will correspond to the HTML field "NAME". The allowed %ARGS are

	     string => POSIX strftime string
	     min    => minimum time stamp (inclusive)
	     max    => maximum time stamp (exclusive)

	   The "min" and "max" time stamps must be in the same format as the "string" supplies.

	   WARNING

	   The algorithm to implement "min" and "max" barriers is very simplicistic - it tries as many random values as necessary to meet the two
	   criteria. This means that your script may enter an infinite loop if the criteria can never be attained or are too little apart.

       name [NEWNAME]
	   Gets and sets the name of the HTML field this value corresponds to.

       value FIELD
	   Returns the value to put into the HTML field.

   EXPORT
       None by default.

NAME

       WWW::Mechanize::TreeBuilder - Module to optimize WWW::Mechanize and HTML::TreeBuilder use

SYNOPSIS

	use Test::More tests => 2;
	use Test::WWW::Mechanize;
	use WWW::Mechanize::TreeBuilder;
	# or
	# use WWW::Mechanize;
	# or
	# use Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst 'MyApp';

	my $mech = Test::WWW::Mechanize->new;
	# or
	#my $mech = Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst->new;
	# etc. etc.
	WWW::Mechanize::TreeBuilder->meta->apply($mech);

	$mech->get_ok('/');
	is( $mech->look_down(_tag => 'p')->as_trimmed_text, 'Some text', 'It worked' );

DESCRIPTION

       This module combines WWW::Mechanize and HTML::TreeBuilder. Why? Because I've seen too much code like the following:

	like($mech->content, qr{<p>some text</p>}, "Found the right tag");

       Which is just all flavours of wrong - its akin to processing XML with regexps.  Instead, do it like the following:

	ok($mech->look_down(_tag => 'p', sub { $_[0]->as_trimmed_text eq 'some text' })

       The anon-sub there is a bit icky, but this means that anyone should happen to add attributes to the "<p>" tag (such as an id or a class) it
       will still work and find the right tag.

       All of the methods available on HTML::Element (that aren't 'private' - i.e.  that don't begin with an underscore) such as "look_down" or
       "find" are automatically delegated to "$mech->tree" through the magic of Moose.

METHODS

       Everything in WWW::Mechanize (or which ever sub class you apply it to) and all public methods from HTML::Element except those where
       WWW::Mechanize and HTML::Element overlap. In the case where the two classes both define a method, the one from WWW::Mechanize will be used
       (so that the existing behaviour of Mechanize doesn't break.)

USING XPATH OR OTHER SUBCLASSES

       HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath allows you to use use xpath selectors to select elements in the tree. You can use that module by providing
       parameters to the moose role:

	with 'WWW::Mechanize::TreeBuilder' => {
	  tree_class => 'HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath'
	};

	# or

	# NOTE: No hashref using this method
	WWW::Mechanize::TreeBuilder->meta->apply($mech,
	  tree_class => 'HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath';
	);

       and class will be automatically loaded for you. This class will be used to construct the tree in the following manner:

	$tree = $tree_class->new_from_content($req->decoded_content)->elementify;

       You can also specify a "element_class" parameter which is the (HTML::Element sub)class that methods are proxied from. This module provides
       defaults for element_class when "tree_class" is "HTML::TreeBuilder" or "HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath" - it will warn otherwise.
