NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Test::Inline - Create test files for inline tests in POD sections

VERSION

version 0.011000

SYNOPSIS

In your dist.ini:

        [Test::Inline]

In your module:

        # My/AddressRange.pm

        =begin testing

        use Test::Exception;
        dies_ok {
                My::AddressRange->list_from_range('10.2.3.A', '10.2.3.5')
        } "list_from_range() complains about invalid address";

        =end testing

        sub list_from_range {
                # ...
        }

This will result in a file t/inline-tests/my_addressrange.t in your distribution.

DESCRIPTION

This plugin integrates Test::Inline into Dist::Zilla.

It scans all modules for inline tests in POD sections that are embedded between the keywords

        =begin testing
        ...
        =end testing

and exports them into t/inline-tests/*.t files when Dist::Zilla builds your module. Multiple of these test sections may be specified within one file.

Please note that this plugin (in contrast to pure Test::Inline) can also handle Moops-like class and role definitions.

EXTENDS

METHODS

gather_files

Required by role Dist::Zilla::Role::FileGatherer.

Searches for inline test code in POD sections using Test::Inline, creates in-memory test files and passes them to Dist::Zilla.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The code of this Dist::Zilla file gatherer plugin is mainly taken from https://github.com/moose/moose/blob/master/inc/ExtractInlineTests.pm.
