NAME

App::Prove::Plugin::Idempotent - a prove plugin to keep output TAP reusable

SYNOPSIS

 prove -P Idempotent t/foo.t

DESCRIPTION

This plugin tries to keep the verbose output of prove to be the same TAP as it consumed. In particular, the final ok line that is normally added is left out. Therefore you can reuse the output TAP stream and feed it again into a TAP parser.

See the email thread here for discussion.
