NAME Test::Continuous - Run your test suite continuously when developing. SYNOPSIS Very simple usage: % cd MyModule/ % autoprove You may pass prove arguments: % autoprove --shuffle DESCRIPTION *Continuous Testing* is a concept and tool to re-run software tests as soon as the developer saves the source code. "Test::Continuous" is a tool based on App::Prove that implements this concept for Perl. See for the original implementation of Continuous Testing as an Eclipse plugin. See also Zentest for the same concept implemented in Ruby's world. INTERFACE runtests This function starts monitoring the mtime of all files under current working directory. If there's any update, it runs your module tests under t/ directory with App::Prove. You could call it from command line like this: perl -MTest::Continuous -e Test::Continuous::runtests However, it's recommended to use the autoprove program shipped with this distribution to do this instead. CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT Test::Continuous requires no configuration files or environment variables. Your ".proverc" is NOT loaded, even though it's based on App::Prove. DEPENDENCIES App::Prove, Log::Dispatch, Log::Dispatch::DesktopNotification, Module::ExtractUse INCOMPATIBILITIES It might not be compatible with all Test::Harness::* classes. Testing with remote harness classes basically works, but has some glitches. Help is appreciated.
