💖 NAME 💖

Test::Stream::Compare::String — it compares 2 values as strings, bestie. That's the whole gig. ✨

This is a page from the Perl manual (user contributed docs, the people's docs fr fr).

🥲 DEPRECATED 🥲

Okay so this distribution is deprecated, and I need you to hear me when I say it. It's been replaced by Test2</>, Test2::Suite</>, and Test2::Workflow</>. So like… it's giving retirement era. 👑

There's a whole conversion guide if you need to move your stuff over — check out Test::Stream::Manual::ToTest2. It'll walk you through it, no cap. 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So here's the vibe: this thing compares 2 items, and it does it after they've been stringified. So whatever you hand it, it gets turned into a string first, and then the comparison happens on the strings. 🦋

You can also use it to check that 2 strings are not equal — like, they better not match, periodt. 💅

⚠️ Note: this will fail if the received value is undefined. It must be defined. No undef shenanigans allowed, sorry babe. 😭

That's the whole page, gorgeous. Written for perl v5.42.0, dated 2025-07-25 — and that's the user contributed Perl documentation section signing off. Stay defined, stay stringified, and don't forget to migrate. Mwah. 💋🎀
