NAME

Test::Run::CmdLine::Plugin::AlternateInterpreters - Use configurable alternate interpreters to run the tests.

DESCRIPTION

This is a Test::Run::CmdLine plugin that allows enabling alternate interpreters. One can specify them by setting the 'HARNESS_ALT_INTRP_FILE' environment variable to the path to a YAML configuration file which lists the interpreters and their regular expressions. A sample one is:

    ---
    - cmd: '/usr/bin/ruby'
      pattern: \.rb\z
      type: regex
    - cmd: '/usr/bin/python'
      pattern: \.py\z
      type: regex

METHODS

$self->private_backend_plugins()

Returns the Backend Plugins as specified by this plugin. See Test::Run::CmdLine for more information.

$self->private_non_direct_backend_env_mapping()

Returns the non-direct Backend Environment Mappings, that will specify the YAML information. See Test::Run::CmdLine for more information.
