Keyword(s): identity management, device, privacy, user control, trust, federated services
Abstract: This paper describes R&D work on "Identity-aware Devices", in the context of federated services. The aim is to put users in control of their credentials and identities and enable simple, secure, trustworthy and transparent access to federated services. Current users' experience in networked and fede ...

test::identity

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

NAME

       "Test::Identity" - assert the referential identity of a reference

SYNOPSIS

	use Test::More tests => 2;
	use Test::Identity;

	use Thingy;

	{
	   my $thingy;

	   sub get_thingy { return $thingy }
	   sub set_thingy { $thingy = shift; }
	}

	identical( get_thingy, undef, 'get_thingy is undef' );

	my $test_thingy = Thingy->new;
	set_thingy $test_thingy;

	identical( get_thingy, $thingy, 'get_thingy is now $test_thingy' );

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a single testing function, "identical". It asserts that a given reference is as expected; that is, it either refers to
       the same object or is "undef". It is similar to "Test::More::is" except that it uses "refaddr", ensuring that it behaves correctly even if
       the references under test are objects that overload stringification or numification.

       It also provides better diagnostics if the test fails:

	$ perl -MTest::More=tests,1 -MTest::Identity -e'identical [], {}'
	1..1
	not ok 1
	#   Failed test at -e line 1.
	# Expected an anonymous HASH ref, got an anonymous ARRAY ref
	# Looks like you failed 1 test of 1.

	$ perl -MTest::More=tests,1 -MTest::Identity -e'identical [], []'
	1..1
	not ok 1
	#   Failed test at -e line 1.
	# Expected an anonymous ARRAY ref to the correct object
	# Looks like you failed 1 test of 1.

FUNCTIONS

   identical( $got, $expected, $name )
       Asserts that $got refers to the same object as $expected.
