NAME

Dist::Zilla::App::Command::xtest - run xt tests for your dist

VERSION

version 0.029

SYNOPSIS

Run xt tests for your distribution:

dzil xtest [ --no-author] [ --no-release ] [ --no-automated ] [ --all ]

This runs with AUTHOR_TESTING and RELEASE_TESTING environment variables turned on, so it's like doing this:

export AUTHOR_TESTING=1
export RELEASE_TESTING=1
dzil build
rsync -avp My-Project-Version/ .build/
cd .build;
perl Makefile.PL
make
prove -l -r xt

Except for the fact it's built directly in a subdir of .build (like .build/ASDF123).

A build that fails tests will be left behind for analysis, and dzil will exit a non-zero value. If the tests are successful, the build directory will be removed and dzil will exit with status 0.

You can also use 'xt' as an alias for 'xtest':

dzil xt

If you provide one or more filenames on the command line, only those tests will be run (however deeply they are nested).

dzil xtest pod-spell.t

Arguments are turned into regexp patterns, so you can do any sort of partial match you want:

dzil xtest author/    # just the author tests
dzil xtest spell      # a test with 'spell' in the path

There is no need to add anything to dist.ini -- installation of this module is sufficient to make the command available.

OPTIONS

--no-author

This will run the test suite without setting AUTHOR_TESTING

--no-release

This will run the test suite without setting RELEASE_TESTING

--automated

This will run the test suite with AUTOMATED_TESTING=1

--all

Equivalent to --release --automated --author
