NAME

App::Prove::Plugin::TraceUse - Report all modules used during testing and check if they are listed as dependencies in Makefile.PL and Build.PL

VERSION

This document describes App::Prove::Plugin::TraceUse version 1.0.1

SYNOPSIS

# Run this module as a plugin to the prove script, ie:
# cd /your/module/folder
# prove -l -PTraceUse

DESCRIPTION

This module keeps track of all modules and versions loaded during testing. if Makefile.PL and Build.PL are formatted as they come from a plain module-starter, it will recognize the requirement list and check this list with what was found during testing. It reports any non-core modules not listed as requirements

Currently it does not care about core modules changing between perl versions.

INTERFACE

load

Don't call this. It gets called by App::Prove. Does the following:

Makes sure user didnt specify any other harness class than TAP::Harness
Creates a subclass of TAP::Harness and makes App::Prove use that.
Adds -d:TraceUse=hidecore,output:$fn to perl switches for perl tests. $fn is a temp file name for this test.
Adds a callback to "after_test" to catch TraceUse output

DIAGNOSTICS

TraceUse plugin is only compatible wtih TAP::Harness

Apparently you use something else than TAP::Harness. Unfortunately that does not compute with this plugin.

Odd, should have had a parent for...

Parsing the Devel::TraceUse output failed. Send me data to investigate.
