💖 Dist::Zilla::Plugin::CheckExtraTests 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual for Dist::Zilla::Plugin::CheckExtraTests (it lives in the 3pm section of your man pages, iykyk) and honestly? it's giving responsible adult energy in the best way. it's a Dist::Zilla plugin that does a vibe check on your xt tests before you ship. let's get into it. 🎀

✨ VERSION ✨

this is version 0.029 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

drop this into your dist.ini and you're so set:

[CheckExtraTests]

that's it. that's the whole setup. iconic. ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea 🍓 — this plugin runs all your xt tests before release. every single one. and if any of them fail? it dies. no soft launch, no "we'll fix it later", just straight-up death. 💀

it also sets RELEASE_TESTING and AUTHOR_TESTING for you, so your author-y and release-y tests actually wake up and do their thing. 🫶

now, lowkey important side note: if you're already using Dist::Zilla::Plugin::TestRelease, you should consider using Dist::Zilla::Plugin::RunExtraTests instead. why? because that one lets your xt tests run as part of [TestRelease], which is a bit more efficient — the distribution only gets built once for testing instead of twice. efficiency queen behavior. 👑

💜 ATTRIBUTES 💜

default_jobs

this attribute is the default value that should be used as the jobs argument for prerelease tests. that's literally it, that's the whole thing, but it matters. ✨
