Test::FITesque::Fixture - Abstract calls for fixtures
package Buddha::Fixture; use strict; use warnings; use base qw(Test::FITesque::Fixture); use Test::More qw(); sub click_on_button : Test { my ($self, @args) = @_; ... ok(1); } sub open_window : Test : Plan(3) { my ($self, @args) = @_; ... ok(1); ok(2); ok(3); }
This module provides the base class for FITesque fixtures. It provides methods for the 'Test' and 'Plan' attributes along with some utility functions for Test::FITesque::Fixture.
All methods for use as FITesque test methods must be marked with the 'Test' attribute.
The 'Plan' attribute states how many Test::More functions the FITesque test method expects to run. If a method does not have the 'Plan' attribute set, it is implied that the test method will execute one Test::More functions.
# Execute 10 Test::More functions sub test_method : Test : Plan(10) { ... } # Just one this time sub test_method : Test { ... } # not a test method sub normal_method { ... }
There are also 2 methods which may require overriding. The parse_method_string method returns a coderef of the method that relates to the method string used as the first element of a FITesque test row.
# get coderef for the 'click_on_buton' method of the fixture class my $coderef = $fixture->parse_method_string('click on button');
The other method, 'parse_arguments' provides a hook in point to allow preprocessing on arguments to FITesque fixture test methods. This might be useful in case you want to design a domain specific langauge into your arguments. By default, this method just returns the arguments as is.
my $fixture = Buddha::Fixture->new();
Simple constructor
my $count = $fixture->method_test_count('foo');
This returns the planned test count associated with the passed method name.
my $coderef = $fixture->parse_method_string('click on button');
This method takes a string of text and attempts to return a coderef of a method within the fixture class.
my @arguments = $fixture->parse_arguments(qw(one two three));
This method provides a way to preprocess arguments for methods before they are run.
