NAME

App::Prove::State::Result - Individual test suite results.

VERSION

Version 3.23

DESCRIPTION

The prove command supports a --state option that instructs it to store persistent state across runs. This module encapsulates the results for a single test suite run.

SYNOPSIS

# Re-run failed tests
$ prove --state=fail,save -rbv

METHODS

Class Methods

new

my $result = App::Prove::State::Result->new({
    generation => $generation,
    tests      => \%tests,
});

Returns a new App::Prove::State::Result instance.

state_version

Returns the current version of state storage.

test_class

Returns the name of the class used for tracking individual tests. This class should either subclass from App::Prove::State::Result::Test or provide an identical interface.

generation

Getter/setter for the "generation" of the test suite run. The first generation is 1 (one) and subsequent generations are 2, 3, etc.

last_run_time

Getter/setter for the time of the test suite run.

tests

Returns the tests for a given generation. This is a hashref or a hash, depending on context called. The keys to the hash are the individual test names and the value is a hashref with various interesting values. Each k/v pair might resemble something like this:

't/foo.t' => {
   elapsed        => '0.0428488254547119',
   gen            => '7',
   last_pass_time => '1219328376.07815',
   last_result    => '0',
   last_run_time  => '1219328376.07815',
   last_todo      => '0',
   mtime          => '1191708862',
   seq            => '192',
   total_passes   => '6',
 }

test

my $test = $result->test('t/customer/create.t');

Returns an individual App::Prove::State::Result::Test instance for the given test name (usually the filename). Will return a new App::Prove::State::Result::Test instance if the name is not found.

test_names

Returns an list of test names, sorted by run order.

remove

$result->remove($test_name);            # remove the test
my $test = $result->test($test_name);   # fatal error

Removes a given test from results. This is a no-op if the test name is not found.

num_tests

Returns the number of tests for a given test suite result.

raw

Returns a hashref of raw results, suitable for serialization by YAML.
