💅 Test2::Event::Subtest — the perl one, bestie

okay so you found your way to Test2::Event::Subtest, and honestly? iconic choice. this is a perl manpage, so grab a snack and let's get into it 🍓

✨ NAME ✨

Test2::Event::Subtest — it's the event class for subtest types. that's the whole vibe. 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so this class represents a subtest. that's it, that's the job. 💖

and here's the nepo-baby tea: Test2::Event::Subtest is a subclass of Test2::Event::Ok. meaning it inherits all of Ok's stuff — we'll get to that in a sec. 🦋

🔥 ACCESSORS 🔥

lowkey important: this class inherits from Test2::Event::Ok. so whatever Ok gives you? you got it here too. family inheritance, slay. 👑

here's what's actually on this class:

  • $arrayref = $e->subevents — hands you back the arrayref, and that arrayref is holding all the events from the subtest. every single one. no cap. 🫶
  • $bool = $e->buffered — returns true if the subtest is buffered, meaning all the subevents render at once, all together, like a little friend group showing up to the party simultaneously. 💜 and if this is false?? then it means every subevent renders as it's produced, one by one, streamed live, main character energy as they walk in. 🚶♀️✨
