NAME
Test::UseAllModules - do use_ok() for all the MANIFESTed modules SYNOPSIS
# basic usage use strict; use Test::UseAllModules; BEGIN { all_uses_ok(); } # if you also want to test modules under t/lib use strict; use Test::UseAllModules under => qw(lib t/lib); BEGIN { all_uses_ok(); } # if you have modules that'll fail use_ok() for themselves use strict; use Test::UseAllModules; BEGIN { all_uses_ok except => qw( Some::Dependent::Module Another::Dependent::Module ^Yet::Another::Dependent::.* # you can use regex ) } DESCRIPTION
I'm sick of writing 00_load.t (or something like that) that'll do use_ok() for every module I write. I'm sicker of updating 00_load.t when I add another file to the distro. This module reads MANIFEST to find modules to be tested and does use_ok() for each of them. Now all you have to do is update MANIFEST. You don't have to modify the test any more (hopefully). EXPORTED FUNCTION
all_uses_ok Does Test::More's use_ok() for every module found in MANIFEST. If you have modules you don't want to test, give those modules or some regex rules as the argument. The word 'except' is ignored as shown above. As of 0.11, you can also test modules under arbitrary directories by providing a directory list at the loading time (the word 'under' is ignored as shown above). Modules under the lib directory are always tested. PROTECTED FUNCTION
_get_module_list Returns module paths to test. This function will not be exported. If you want to use this (see below), you always need to call it by the full qualified name. NOTES
As of 0.03, this module calls BAIL_OUT of Test::More if any of the use_ok tests should fail. (Thus the following tests will be ignored. Missing or unloadable modules cause a lot of errors of the same kind.) As of 0.12, you can add extra tests before/after all_uses_ok() if you explicitly declare test plan like this. use strict; use warnings; use Test::More; use Test::UseAllModules; use Test::NoWarnings; plan tests => Test::UseAllModules::_get_module_list() + 1; all_uses_ok(); # and extra nowarnings test SEE ALSO
There're several modules like this on the CPAN now. Test::Compile and a bit confusing Test::LoadAllModules try to find modules to test by traversing directories. I'm not a big fun of them as they tend to find temporary or unrelated modules as well, but they may be handier especially if you're too lazy to update MANIFEST every time. AUTHOR

NAME
Test::HasVersion - Check Perl modules have version numbers SYNOPSIS
"Test::HasVersion" lets you check a Perl module has a version number in a "Test::Simple" fashion. use Test::HasVersion tests => 1; pm_version_ok("M.pm", "Valid version"); Module authors can include the following in a t/has_version.t file and let "Test::HasVersion" find and check all installable PM files in a distribution. use Test::More; eval "use Test::HasVersion"; plan skip_all => 'Test::HasVersion required for testing for version numbers' if $@; all_pm_version_ok(); DESCRIPTION
Do you wanna check that every one of your Perl modules in a distribution has a version number? You wanna make sure you don't forget the brand new modules you just added? Well, that's the module you have been looking for. Use it! Do you wanna check someone else's distribution to make sure the author have not commited the sin of leaving Perl modules without a version that can be used to tell if you have this or that feature? "Test::HasVersion" is also for you, nasty little fellow. There's a script test_version which is installed with this distribution. You may invoke it from within the root directory of a distribution you just unpacked, and it will check every .pm file in the directory and under lib/ (if any). $ test_version You may also provide directories and files as arguments. $ test_version *.pm lib/ inc/ $ test_version . (Be warned that many Perl modules in a t/ directory do not receive versions because they are not used outside the distribution.) Ok. That's not a very useful module by now. But it will be. Wait for the upcoming releases. FUNCTIONS PRIVATE _pm_version $v = _pm_version($pm); Parses a PM file and return what it thinks is $VERSION in this file. (Actually implemented with "use ExtUtils::MakeMaker; MM->parse_version($file)".) $pm is the filename (eg., lib/Data/Dumper.pm). pm_version_ok pm_version_ok('Module.pm'); pm_version_ok('M.pm', 'Has valid version'); Checks to see if the given file has a valid version. Actually a valid version number is defined and not equal to 'undef' (the string) which is return by "_pm_version" if a version cannot be determined. all_pm_version_ok all_pm_version_ok(); all_pm_version_ok(@PM_FILES); Checks every given file and .pm files found under given directories to see if they provide valid version numbers. If no argument is given, it defaults to check every file *.pm in the current directory and recurses under the lib/ directory (if it exists). If no test plan was setted, "Test::HasVersion" will set one after computing the number of files to be tested. Otherwise, the plan is left untouched. PRIVATE _list_pm_files @pm_files = _list_pm_files(@dirs); Returns all PM files under the given directories. all_pm_files @files = all_pm_files() @files = all_pm_files(@files_and_dirs); Implements finding the Perl modules according to the semantics of the previous function "all_pm_version_ok". USAGE
Other usage patterns besides the ones given in the synopsis. use Test::More tests => $num_tests; use Test::HasVersion; pm_version_ok($file1); pm_version_ok($file2); Obviously, you can't plan twice. use Test::More; use Test::HasVersion; plan tests => $num_tests; pm_version_ok($file); "plan" comes from "Test::More". use Test::More; use Test::HasVersion; plan 'no_plan'; pm_version_ok($file); "no_plan" is ok either.
