NAME

Perlbug::Test - Perlbug testing module

DESCRIPTION

Utility functions for Perlbug test scripts, several wrappers for the email side of things...

Output is seen from output() when TEST_VERBOSE is set to 1, or when the script is being run directly.

Will set mailing to 0, meaning mails will be printed, rather than sent.

Set the current admin to the userid of the local bugmaster.

SYNOPSIS

use Perlbug::Base;
use Perlbug::Test; # calls Test;

my $o_email = Perlbug::Base->new; 
my $o_test  = Perlbug::Test->new($o_base);

plan('todo' => 1); 

my %header  = ('To' => 'perlbug@perl.org');
my $o_int   = $o_email->setup_int(\%header, 'mail body perl');

my ($switch, $msg) = $o_email->parse_mail($o_int);
if ($switch eq 'B') {
	ok($test);
	output("passed");
} else {
	notok($test);
	output("failed: $switch, $msg");
}

METHODS

new

Create new Perlbug::Test object.

Sets current ( admin => $bugmaster, fatal => 0, isatest => 1 ):

    my $o_test = Perlbug::Test->new();              # generic

	my $o_email_test = Perlbug::Test->new($o_email); # guess :-)

output

prints given args with newline, warns if $Perlbug::DEBUG set

output("message"); 

compare

Compare two arrays: returns 1 if identical, 0 if not.

   my $identical = $o_test->compare(\@arry1, \@arry2);

Utilities

Provides mapping for default email content, passes back up to $o_email.

target

my $random_target_address = $o_test->target

forward

my $random_forward_address = $o_test->forward

AUTOLOAD

Tends to return member variables or, (where this is not supported), wraps any unhandlable calls to $o_arg->$meth(), where $o_arg is the Perlbug::Interface::Xxx->new object given by new() (see above);

bugdb

my $bugdb = $o_test->email('bugdb');

bugid

my $test_bugid = $o_test->bugid

domain

my $test_domain = $o_test->domain

body

my $test_body = $o_test->body

etc.

and so on

REDUNDANT

iseven

Return 0(odd) or 1(even) based on last number of given filename

my $num = iseven($filename);

isodd

Return 1(odd) or 0(even) based on last number of given filename

my $num = isodd($filename);

okbyfilearg

Return 1(ok) or 0(not) based on filename and arg, where arg just has to be successful in some way.

$i_isok = okbyfilearg('test0.tst', 1); # false (0) 

$i_isok = okbyfilearg('test1.tst', 1); # true  (1) 

$i_isok = okbyfilearg('test2.tst', 0); # true  (1)

$i_isok = okbyfilearg('test3.tst', 0); # false (0)

get_tests

Wraps getting test material filenames from test directory, incorporates test count and check that all expected types are found.

my @tests = get_tests($t_dir, qw(this that and the other)); 

Fails if expected directory list or any files not found.

file2minet

Return Mail Iinternet object from dir,file:

Or undef:

my $o_int = file2minet($filename);

minet2args

Wrapper to return args from Mail Internet object, ready for method check_mail(@args)

Or ();

my @args = minet2args($o_int); 	

minet2tagline

Returns X-Perlbug-Tag and X-Perlbug-Line headers from Mail Internet object:

Or ();

Instead of:

my ($o_hdr, $header, $body) = $self->splice($o_int);
my $tag  = $o_hdr->get('X-Perlbug-Tag')  || '';
my $line = $o_hdr->get('X-Perlbug-Line') || '';

You can:

my ($tag, $line) = minet2tagline($o_int);

check_mail

Check headers against various given parameters, attempts to read all required lines/data.

my ($o_hdr, $header, $body) = $o_mail->splice($o_int);
my @should 	   = $o_hdr->get('X-Perlbug-Match');
my @shouldnt   = $o_hdr->get('X-Perlbug-Match-Non');
my @shouldfail = $o_hdr->get('X-Perlbug-Match-Bad');

($i_ok, $feedback) = $o_bugmail->check_mail($o_new, $body, \@should, \@shouldnt, \@shouldfail); 

warn "Mail check failure($i_ok): ($feedback)\n" unless $i_ok == 1;
