According to the Test::More documentation, it is recommended to run
|
||
|
|
use_ok() inside a BEGIN block, so functions are exported at
|
||
|
|
compile-time and prototypes are properly honored.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
That is, instead of writing this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
use_ok( 'Some::Module' );
|
||
|
|
use_ok( 'Other::Module' );
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
One should write this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
BEGIN { use_ok( 'Some::Module' ); }
|
||
|
|
BEGIN { use_ok( 'Other::Module' ); }
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
However, people often either forget to add BEGIN, or mistakenly group
|
||
|
|
use_ok with other tests in a single BEGIN block, which can create subtle
|
||
|
|
differences in execution order.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
With this module, simply change all use_ok in test scripts to use ok,
|
||
|
|
and they will be executed at BEGIN time. The explicit space after use
|
||
|
|
makes it clear that this is a single compile-time action.
