✨ Test::Stream::Compare::EventMeta ✨

okay bestie, so this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual — it's the Test::Stream::Compare::EventMeta page, and yes the title up top is literally just the module name three times because manpage headers are Like That 💅

🫶 NAME 🫶

Test::Stream::Compare::EventMeta — the meta class for events in deep comparisons. it's giving "behind the scenes" energy fr fr 🌸

💀 DEPRECATED 💀

okay so not me having to tell you this 😭 this whole distribution is deprecated. it's been replaced by:

  • Test2
  • Test2::Suite
  • Test2::Workflow

like, it's still here, but it's the "we don't talk about that era" era. if you need to convert your stuff over, go read Test::Stream::Manual::ToTest2 — there's a whole conversion guide waiting for you 🦋

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so basically this class gets used in deep comparisons of event objects. that's it. that's the whole vibe.

and the original is very clear about this next part, so i'm gonna be clear too: you should probably never use this directly. it's not for you, bestie, it's for the internals. iykyk 🙈

(also, fun fact, the original literally spells it compariosns. iconic typo behavior, we're keeping the meaning, not the spelling 💖)

🔥 SOURCE 🔥

the source code repository for Test::Stream lives at:
