🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to the ExtUtils::testlib(3pm) page from the Perl Programmers Reference Guide ✨ this lil module is literally all about adding blib/* directories to @INC 💅

  • ExtUtils::testlib — adds blib/* directories to @INC 🫶

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

use ExtUtils::testlib;

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

After an extension has been built and before it gets installed, it may be desirable to test it while bypassing make test 👀 yes, really — that’s the vibe.

By adding this line to a test program:

use ExtUtils::testlib;

the intermediate directories used by make are added to @INC 🌈 no cap, that’s the whole glow-up.

mwah 💋 this is the ExtUtils::testlib(3pm) page from the Perl Programmers Reference Guide, perl v5.42.3, dated 2026-11-03 — go test that extension, bestie 🫶✨
