Deprecation Notice

       There have been numerous issues found with this module, particularly with its use of locks (unreliable,
       may result in your entire $TMPDIR being deleted) and MSWin32 compatibility. As well, it uses Moose, which
       is nowadays considered to be heavier than necessary.

       Test::TempDir::Tiny was written as a replacement. Please use it instead!

Description

       Test::TempDir provides temporary directory creation with testing in mind.

       The differences between using this and using File::Temp are:

       •

           If  "t/tmp" is available (writable, creatable, etc) it's preferred over $ENV{TMPDIR} etc. Otherwise a
           temporary directory will be used.

           This is "temp_root"

       •   Lock files are used on "t/tmp", to prevent  race  conditions  when  running  under  a  parallel  test
           harness.

       •   The "temp_root" is cleaned at the end of a test run, but not if tests failed.

       •   "temp_root" is emptied at the beginning of a test run unconditionally.

       •   The  default  policy is not to clean the individual "tempfiles" and "tempdirs" within "temp_root", in
           order to aid in debugging of failed tests.

Exports

"temp_root"
       The root of the temporary stuff.

   "tempfile""tempdir"
       Wrappers for the File::Temp functions of the same name.

       The default options are changed to use "temp_root"  for  "DIR"  and  disable  "CLEANUP",  but  these  are
       overridable.

   "scratch"
       Loads  Directory::Scratch  and  instantiates  a  new one, with the same default options as "tempfile" and
       "tempdir".
