Test2:...ummary(3perl)

💖 NAME 💖

Test2::Plugin::ExitSummary — bestie, this one is giving "add extra diagnostics on failure at the end of the test" energy 🫶

Also hi, we're in the 3perl section of the Perl Programmers Reference Guide, just so you know the vibe we're in here. 👑

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so picture this: your test fails 😭, and this plugin is the friend who pulls up right after with the receipts. It hooks you up with some extra diagnostics after a failed test, all at the very end where you can't miss them.

And the range on these diagnostics? It's not one little note, it's a whole spectrum 🌈 — stuff like telling you how you deviated from your plan, or warning you if there was, um, no plan at all 🙈. Very "we need to talk" of it, honestly.

Here's the tea 🍓: people who came up through Test::More generally expect these diagnostics. Like, they're used to them being there. So if you're migrating and something feels missing at the end of a fail, that's the gap this thing fills. Slay.
