πŸ’… Test::Stream::Plugin::TAP

okay bestie, so this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation β€” aka the perl manual section 3, the library-function zone ✨ β€” and it's literally called Test::Stream::Plugin::TAP. Let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME

Test::Stream::Plugin::TAP β€” a plugin whose whole entire job is to set TAP as the default output formatter. that's it. that's the gig. πŸ’…


πŸ’€ DEPRECATED

ngl this one's giving sad girl era 😭 β€” this distribution is deprecated in favor of Test2, Test2::Suite, and Test2::Workflow.

if you need to make the move, there's a whole conversion guide waiting for you at Test::Stream::Manual::ToTest2. go look, it's right there πŸŽ€

it's deprecated, bestie. not "kinda old." deprecated. plan accordingly πŸ™ˆ

✨ DESCRIPTION

okay so here's the tea β˜• β€” Test::Stream does not force you to use TAP output the way Test::Builder based tools do. it's very chill like that, very "you do you" 🌈

but here's the thing: TAP is what most people actually want. every time. without fail. so this plugin exists to make providing TAP output easy-peasy, no cap πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS

use Test::Stream qw/Tap/;

...

like. that's it. that's the whole vibe. use it, and TAP is your default formatter now, periodt πŸ‘‘
