NAME

TAP::Parser::Result - TAP::Parser output

VERSION

Version 0.54

DESCRIPTION

This is merely a factory class which returns an object representing the current bit of test data from TAP (usually a line). It's for internal use only and should not be relied upon.

METHODS

`new`

  my $result = TAP::Parser::Result->new($token);

Returns an instance the appropriate class for the test token passed in.

Boolean methods

The following methods all return a boolean value and are to be overridden in the appropriate subclass.

is_plan
Indicates whether or not this is the test plan line.
```
 1..3
```
is_test
Indicates whether or not this is a test line.
```
 is $foo, $bar, $description;
```
is_comment
Indicates whether or not this is a comment.
```
 # this is a comment
```
is_bailout
Indicates whether or not this is bailout line.
```
 Bail out! We're out of dilithium crystals.
```
is_version
Indicates whether or not this is a TAP version line.
```
 TAP version 4
```
is_unknown
Indicates whether or not the current line could be parsed.
```

```
is_yaml
Indicates whether or not this is a YAML chunk.

`raw`

  print $result->raw;

Returns the original line of text which was parsed.

`type`

  my $type = $result->type;

Returns the "type" of a token, such as comment or test.

`as_string`

  print $result->as_string;

Prints a string representation of the token. This might not be the exact output, however. Tests will have test numbers added if not present, TODO and SKIP directives will be capitalized and, in general, things will be cleaned up. If you need the original text for the token, see the raw method.

`is_ok`

  if ( $result->is_ok ) { ... }

Reports whether or not a given result has passed. Anything which is not a test result returns true. This is merely provided as a convenient shortcut.

`passed`

Deprecated. Please use is_ok instead.

`has_directive`

  if ( $result->has_directive ) {
     ...
  }

Indicates whether or not the given result has a TODO or SKIP directive.

`has_todo`

 if ( $result->has_todo ) {
     ...
 }

Indicates whether or not the given result has a TODO directive.

`has_skip`

 if ( $result->has_skip ) {
     ...
 }

Indicates whether or not the given result has a SKIP directive.
