Test2::...reakage(3)

okay so bestie, welcome to the Test2::...reakage(3) page from User Contributed Perl Documentation 🌈 — yeah the title is truncated like that, but the module is Test2::API::Breakage, iykyk 💅

💖 NAME 💖

Test2::API::Breakage — what breaks at what version ✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This module provides lists of modules that are broken, or have been broken in the past, when upgrading Test::Builder to use Test2. It's giving "who's gonna break when you level up" energy, but make it useful 🫶

✨ FUNCTIONS ✨

You can import these, or call them as methods on the class. Both vibes slay 💅

🧚 upgrade_suggested

%mod_ver = upgrade_suggested()
%mod_ver = Test2::API::Breakage->upgrade_suggested()

This returns key/value pairs. The key is the module name, the value is the version number. If the installed version of the module is at or below the specified one then an upgrade would be a good idea, but not strictly necessary. Soft suggestion, not a demand — lowkey respectful 💖

🔥 upgrade_required

%mod_ver = upgrade_required()
%mod_ver = Test2::API::Breakage->upgrade_required()

This returns key/value pairs. The key is the module name, the value is the version number. If the installed version of the module is at or below the specified one then an upgrade is required for the module to work properly. This one is not a drill, bestie — required means required 😭

💀 known_broken

%mod_ver = known_broken()
%mod_ver = Test2::API::Breakage->known_broken()

This returns key/value pairs. The key is the module name, the value is the version number. If the installed version of the module is at or below the specified one then the module will not work. A newer version may work, but is not tested or verified. So like… proceed with caution, or don't proceed at all 🙈
