Test::Effects::ONLY - Lexically set Test::Effects verbosity
Contents
Bugs And Limitations
No bugs have been reported.
Please report any bugs or feature requests to "bug-lib-test-effects@rt.cpan.org", or through the web
interface at <http://rt.cpan.org>.
Configuration And Environment
Test::Effects::ONLY requires no configuration files or environment variables.
Dependencies
Requires Perl 5.14 (or better).
Does not require, but is meaningless without, the Test::Effects module.
Description
Using this module changes the default behaviour of Test::Effects's "effects_ok()" test.
Normally this test tests all side-effects, even those unspecified (unless explicitly told otherwise via
the use of "ONLY()"). If this module is used in a code block, "effects_ok()" defaults to only running
specified tests for the remainder of that block's lexical scope.
Note, however, that an explicit "ONLY => $boolean" option in any call to "<effects_ok()" overrides this
lexical default.
Diagnostics
None.
