Test::...mcheck(3pm)

💖 Test::...mcheck(3pm) 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's all about Test::Valgrind::Tool::memcheck — yes the name has dots in it, that's just how the header abbreviates it, don't @ me 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

Test::Valgrind::Tool::memcheck — run an analysis through the memcheck tool. 🧚

---

🌸 VERSION 🌸

Version 1.19

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This class contains the information required by the session for running the "memcheck" tool. it's giving "everything the session needs, neatly boxed up" 💅

---

👑 METHODS 👑

This class inherits Test::Valgrind::Tool. (yes, it's a nepo baby, but like, a talented one 🌈)

requires_version

my $required_version = $tvt->requires_version;

This tool requires "valgrind" 3.1.0. no older valgrind, bestie, it simply will not slay on anything less. 💀

new

my $tvtm = Test::Valgrind::Tool::memcheck->new(
 callers => $callers,
 %extra_args,
);

Your usual constructor. nothing weird, just the standard spawn-a-new-object moment ✨

$callers specifies the number of stack frames to inspect for errors : the bigger you set it, the more granular the analysis is. so like, crank it up for the detailed tea, keep it low for the vibes 🍓

Other arguments are passed straight to "Test::Valgrind::Tool->new". no meddling, they just get handed off. 🫶

callers

my $callers = $tvtm->callers;

Read-only accessor for the "callers" option. look, don't touch 👀

parser_class

my $parser_class = $tvtm->parser_class($session);

This tool uses a Test::Valgrind::Parser::XML::Twig parser in analysis mode, and a Test::Valgrind::Parser::Suppressions::Text parser in suppressions mode. two moods, two parsers, iconic behavior honestly 😌

report_class

my $report_class = $tvtm->report_class($session);

This tool emits "Test::Valgrind::Tool::memcheck::Report" object reports in analysis mode, and "Test::Valgrind::Report::Suppressions" object reports in suppressions mode. matching outfits for matching modes, periodt 💖
