Test::Count::Filter - a filter that counts the tests and updates the test count.

%args may contain the following:

* input_fh

The input filehandle - defaults to STDIN.

* output_fh

The output filehandle - defaults to STDOUT.

* assert_prefix_regex

Passed to Test::Count.

* plan_prefix_regex

The prefix regex for detecting a plan line: i.e: a line that specifies how many tests to run. Followed immediately by a sequence of digits containing the number of tests. The latter will be updated with the number of tests.

Can be a regex or a string.

Processes the stream.

    use Test::Count::Parser;

    my $parser = Test::Count::Parser->new();

    $parser->update_assignments($string);

    $parser->update_count($string);

    my $value = $parser->get_count();

After initiating a parser one can input assignment expressions, and count update expressions. Both of them use arithmetic operations, integers, and Perl-like variable names.

At the end one should call $parser-get_count()> in order to get the total number of tests.

Updates the parser's state based on the assignments in $mytext. For example if $mytext is:

     $myvar=500;$another_var=8+$myvar

Then at the end $myvar would be 500 and $another_var would be 508.

Adds the expression inside $mytext to the internal counter of the module. This is in order to count the tests.

Get the total number of tests in the parser.
