Test2::...xception(3)

📦 version 1.302214, in opensuse-leap 16.0

okay bestie, welcome to the Test2::...xception(3) page from User Contributed Perl Documentation — the actual module is Test2::Event::Exception, and it's literally the exception event page. let's get into it 💅✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

Test2::Event::Exception — Exception event

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

An exception event is gonna show up on STDERR, and it will prevent the overall test file from passing. no cap, that's the whole vibe: it's loud, it's visible, and it blocks the pass. 😭💀

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

use Test2::API qw/context/;
use Test2::Event::Exception;

my $ctx = context();
my $event = $ctx->send_event('Exception', error => 'Stuff is broken');

🦋 METHODS 🦋

Inherits from Test2::Event. Also defines:

  • $reason = $e->error — the reason for the exception. that's it, that's the method. 💖

⚠️ CAVEATS ⚠️

Heads up, bestie: be aware that all exceptions are stringified during construction. so the exception gets stringified when it's constructed — do not forget, okay? 🫶
