Test::Harness::Results(3pm)




NAME

       Test::Harness::Results - object for tracking results from a single test
       file


SYNOPSIS

       One Test::Harness::Results object represents the results from one test
       file getting analyzed.


CONSTRUCTION

       new()

           my $results = new Test::Harness::Results;

       Create a test point object.  Typically, however, you'll not create one
       yourself, but access a Results object returned to you by
       Test::Harness::Results.


ACCESSORS

       The following data points are defined:

         passing           true if the whole test is considered a pass
                           (or skipped), false if its a failure

         exit              the exit code of the test run, if from a file
         wait              the wait code of the test run, if from a file

         max               total tests which should have been run
         seen              total tests actually seen
         skip_all          if the whole test was skipped, this will
                             contain the reason.

         ok                number of tests which passed
                             (including todo and skips)

         todo              number of todo tests seen
         bonus             number of todo tests which
                             unexpectedly passed

         skip              number of tests skipped

       So a successful test should have max == seen == ok.

       There is one final item, the details.

         details           an array ref reporting the result of
                           each test looks like this:

           $results{details}[$test_num - 1] =
                   { ok          => is the test considered ok?
                     actual_ok   => did it literally say 'ok'?
                     name        => name of the test (if any)
                     diagnostics => test diagnostics (if any)
                     type        => 'skip' or 'todo' (if any)
                     reason      => reason for the above (if any)
                   };

       Element 0 of the details is test #1.  I tried it with element 1 being
       #1 and 0 being empty, this is less awkward.

       Each of the following fields has a getter and setter method.

       o   wait

       o   exit
