NAME

Test::Continuous - Run your tests suite continusouly when developing.

VERSION

Top

This document describes Test::Continuous version 0.68

SYNOPSIS

Top

Very simple usage:

    % cd MyModule/
    % autoprove

You may pass prove arguments:

    % autoprove --shuffle

DESCRIPTION

Top

Continuous Testing is a concept and tool to re-run software tests as soon as the developer saved the source code.

Test::Continuous is a tool based on App::Prove that implements this concept for Perl.

See http://groups.csail.mit.edu/pag/continuoustesting/ for the original implementation of Continuous Testing as a Eclipse plugin. See also Zentest http://www.zenspider.com/ZSS/Products/ZenTest/ for the implementation in Ruby's world.

INTERFACE

Top

runtests

This function starts monitoring the mtime of all files under current working directory. If there's any update, it runs your module tests under t/ directory with App::Prove.

You could call it from command line like this:

    perl -MTest::Continuous -e Test::Continuous::runtests

However, it's recommended to use autoprove program shipped with this distribution to do this instead.

CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT

Top

Test::Continuous requires no configuration files or environment variables.

Your .proverc is NOT loaded, even though it's based on App::Prove.

DEPENDENCIES

Top

App::Prove, Log::Dispatch, Log::Dispatch::DesktopNotification, Module::ExtractUse

INCOMPATIBILITIES

Top

It might not be compatible with all Test::Harness::* classes. Testing with remote harness classes are bascially working, but has some glitches. Helps are appreciated.

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

Top

Please report any bugs or feature requests to bug-test-continuous@rt.cpan.org, or through the web interface at http://rt.cpan.org.
