TEST2::EVENTFACET::PARENT(3perl)

💖 Test2::EventFacet::Parent 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the Perl Programmers Reference Guide about Test2::EventFacet::Parent — yes the name is a whole keyboard smash (Test2:...:Parent(3perl)), that's just how the manpage abbreviates it, we move 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

Test2::EventFacet::Parent — the facet for events that contain other events 🫶

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So like. This facet shows up when an event has other events living inside it. A subtest, for example. It's giving parent-child relationship energy, main character event with a whole little entourage of nested events 🎀

---

🦋 FIELDS 🦋

• $string = $parent->{details}
• $string = $parent->details() — a human readable description of the event. literally just words for humans 💜
• $hid = $parent->{hid}
• $hid = $parent->hid() — the hub ID of the hub that's being represented in this parent-child relationship. iykyk 🔥
• $arrayref = $parent->{children}
• $arrayref = $parent->children() — an arrayref holding the facet-data hashes of the events nested under this one.

⚠️ important bestie: this is the facet-data hashes, not the events themselves. if you want the actual events you have to go get them from the parent event directly. no shortcuts, no cap 😭

• $bool = $parent->{buffered}
• $bool = $parent->buffered() — true if the subtest is buffered, which means the formatter has probably not seen them yet 🙈

and that's the whole page bestie, no crumbs left 🍓 this was perl v5.44.0, dated 2026-10-17, and yeah the footer still calls it Test2:...:Parent(3perl) because the manpage abbreviation is committed to the bit. slay 💖✨
