Perl::Critic::Policy::TestingAndDebugging::RequireTestLabels(3)
NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::TestingAndDebugging::RequireTestLabels - Tests
should all have labels.
AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.
DESCRIPTION
Most Perl modules with regression tests use Test::More as
infrastructure for writing and running those tests. It has an easy,
procedural syntax for writing comparisons of results to expectations.
Most of the Test::More functions allow the programmer to add an
optional label that describes what each test is trying to judge. When
a test goes wrong, these labels are very useful for quickly determining
where the problem originated.
This policy enforces that all Test::More functions have labels where
applicable. This only applies to code that has a "use Test::More" or
"require Test::More" declaration (see below to add more test modules to
the list).
CONFIGURATION
A list of additional modules to require label parameters be passed to
their methods can be specified with the "modules" option. The list
must consist of whitespace-delimited, fully-qualified module names.
For example:
[TestingAndDebugging::RequireTestLabels]
modules = My::Test::SubClass Some::Other::Module
The module list always implicitly includes Test::More.
