This test module is intended to simplify testing of external commands.
|
|
It does so by running the command under IPC::Open3, closing the stdin
|
|
immediately, and reading everything from the command's stdout and
|
|
stderr. It then makes the output available to be tested.
|
|
|
|
It is not (yet?) as feature-rich as Test::Cmd, but I think the interface
|
|
to this is much simpler. Tests also plug directly into the Test::Builder
|
|
framework, which plays nice with Test::More.
|
|
|
|
As compared to Test::Command, this module is simpler, relying on the
|
|
user to feed rc, stdout, and stderr to the appropriate other tests,
|
|
presumably in Test::More, but not necessarily.
