NAME Test::Method - test sugar for methods VERSION version 0.001002 SYNOPSIS use Test::More; use Test::Method; my $obj = Class->new; # blessed reference method_ok( $obj, 'method', [], 'value' ); # Class->method() is value method_ok( $obj, 'method', undef, 'value' ); # Class->method() is value method_ok( $obj, 'method', ['arg1', 'arg2'], 'expected', 'testname' ); # testname Class->method(...) is 'expected' use Test::Deep; method_ok( $obj, 'method', [], re('^foo'), ); # Test->method() is Test::Deep::Regexp done_testing; DESCRIPTION The reason for creating Test::Method is to provide an easy way of testing methods without writing a test name which could equate to Object, method name, arguments, expected return. I found my test names suffered from lack of appropriate details simply due to lack of desire for repetitive typing. This module should help reduce this. The ultimate goal of this module is to make testing methods on objects easier and less repetitive. We're using Test::Deep under the hood so you may use it's comparison functions in place of expected. FUNCTIONS method_ok method_ok( $obj, 'method', \@method_args, 'expected', 'testname' ); use for testing a single method in an object, if not passing args use undef or an empty arrayref will work. Unlike most testing modules specifying test name will not replace all of the default test name, instead it is simply prepended. This feature was desirable due to some object names not really being obvious as to what I was looking at, so it allows me to give a hint to the parent object or maybe a grander purpose.
