✨ NAME ✨

Test::S...:Context — it's a plugin and its whole job is exposing the context function 💖 (also filed under Test::Stream::Plugin::Context, if you're looking it up in the User Contributed Perl Documentation, bestie 🫶)

💀 DEPRECATED 💀

Okay so not to be dramatic but this whole distribution is deprecated 😭 it has been superseded by Test2, Test2::Suite, and Test2::Workflow. Like, it still works, but it's giving legacy.

If you're trying to migrate, there's a whole conversion guide waiting for you in Test::Stream::Manual::ToTest2 ✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So this plugin does one (1) thing and it does it iconically: it exposes the context() function 💅

That function is what tools use to mark and find the context of a test. It's also the primary interface for generating test events, which is a lot of main character energy for one little function, but here we are 👑

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

use Test::Stream qw/... Context/;

sub my_tool {
    my $ctx = context();
    ...
    $ctx->release;
}

See how we grab the $ctx and then release it when we're done? That's the whole vibe. Grab it, use it, release it. No cap 🧚
