DESCRIPTION
"Log::Any::Test" is a simple module that allows you to test what has been logged with Log::Any. Most of its API and implementation have been taken from Log::Any::Dispatch.Using "Log::Any::Test" sends all subsequent Log::Any log messages to a single global in-memory buffer. It should be used before Log::Any.
METHODS
The test_name is optional in the *_ok methods; a reasonable default will be provided.- msgs ()
-
Returns the current contents of the global log buffer as an array reference,
where each element is a hash containing a category, level, and message
key. e.g.
{ category => 'Foo', level => 'error', message => 'this is an error' }, { category => 'Bar::Baz', level => 'debug', message => 'this is a debug' }
- contains_ok ($regex[, $test_name])
- Tests that a message in the log buffer matches $regex. On success, the message is removed from the log buffer (but any other matches are left untouched).
- does_not_contain_ok ($regex[, $test_name])
- Tests that no message in the log buffer matches $regex.
- category_contains_ok ($category, $regex[, $test_name])
- Tests that a message in the log buffer from a specific category matches $regex. On success, the message is removed from the log buffer (but any other matches are left untouched).
- category_does_not_contain_ok ($category, $regex[, $test_name])
- Tests that no message from a specific category in the log buffer matches $regex.
- empty_ok ([$test_name])
- Tests that there is no log buffer left. On failure, the log buffer is cleared to limit further cascading failures.
- contains_only_ok ($regex[, $test_name])
- Tests that there is a single message in the log buffer and it matches $regex. On success, the message is removed.
- clear ()
- Clears the log buffer.
