Apache:...tHandler(3)

💅 NAME 💅

Apache::TestHandler — like, a couple of response handlers and helpers, ngl. That's the whole vibe. Fr fr.

Oh and hey, real quick before we dive in: this is a User Contributed Perl Documentation page, bestie — the title up top gets squished to Apache:...tHandler(3) which is honestly giving truncation 💀, but we move.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so here's how you actually use it, copy-paste ready 👇

package My::Test;
use Apache::TestHandler ();
sub handler {
    my ($r) = @_;
    my $result = do_my_test;
    Apache::TestHandler::ok1 $r, $result;
}

sub handler2 {
    my ($r) = @_;
    my $result = do_my_test;
    Apache::TestHandler::ok $r, $result;
}

two handlers, both iconic, no notes 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Apache::TestHandler provides 2 very simple response handler. That's it. Two. Short king energy 👑.

🌸 FUNCTIONS 🌸

• ok $r, $boolean — this one just literally prints out ok or not ok, depending on that optional $boolean parameter you pass in. if $boolean is omitted, "true" is assumed. so yeah, optimistic default, we love that 💖
• ok1 $r, $boolean — okay this one's the main character ✨ it implements a simple response-only test. you can use it all on its own to check whether, for a certain URI, the response phase is reached. or you can just call it like a normal function to print out the test result. the client side gets created automatically, as described in <http://perl.apache.org/docs/general/testing/testing.html#Developing_Response_only_Part_of_a_Test> (iykyk).

and yes, $boolean is optional here too — if you omit it, "true" is assumed. same deal 🎀

• same_interp_counter — TODO 🙈
• same_interp_fixup — TODO 🙈 (both of these are literally just listed as same_interp_counter / same_interp_fixup in a lil cluster with no docs, so bestie, that's genuinely all we know. no cap.)
