Test2:...Target(3perl)

💖 NAME 💖

Test2::Tools::Target — bestie, this one just aliases your testing target package. That's it, that's the whole job. ✨

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so picture this: you're testing some package, and typing its whole long name over and over is giving exhausting. This module lets you alias the package you're testing into a constant and a package variable, so your test file can just vibe with a short little name instead. 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Like, super simple:

use Test2::Tools::Target 'Some::Package';

CLASS()->xxx; # Call 'xxx' on Some::Package
$CLASS->xxx;  # Same

Or you can specify names, if you want to be extra about it:

use Test2::Tools::Target pkg => 'Some::Package';

pkg()->xxx; # Call 'xxx' on Some::Package
$pkg->xxx;  # Same

See how CLASS() and $CLASS both hit Some::Package? Yeah. Same energy, two ways to call it. 💅
