Test2:...::Skip(3perl)

💖 Test2::Event::Skip — bestie's guide to the skip event 💖

okay so real talk, this is Test2::Event::Skip from the Perl Programmers Reference Guide, and it's giving ✨ officially documented Perl core module ✨. let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

Test2::Event::Skip — it's the Skip event type, no cap 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like. Skip events? they bump your test counts just like Test2::Event::Ok events do 👑 but here's the tea: they can never fail. literally never. that's the whole vibe check. passing is not optional, it's destiny 💀✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

two ways to do the thing, bestie. pick your fighter:

use Test2::API qw/context/;
use Test2::Event::Skip;

my $ctx = context();
my $event = $ctx->skip($name, $reason);

or, if you're feeling extra fancy 💅:

my $ctx   = context();
my $event = $ctx->send_event(
    'Skip',
    name   => $name,
    reason => $reason,
);

✨ ACCESSORS ✨

• $reason = $e->reason — this hands you back the original true/false value of whatever got passed into the event... except it's been squished down to just 1 or 0. so like, don't expect your original value back, expect the vibe of it, reduced to its purest binary form 🧚 no bc that's iconic actually
