Description: Perl module that allows swapping the currently compiling file for a new one
goto::file allows Test2::Harness to swap out the main script for the new
file without adding a stack frame.
.
It is rare, but there are times where you want to swap out the currently
compiling file for a different one. This module does that. From the point
you 'use' the module perl will be parsing the new file instead of the
original.
.
This module was created specifically for Test2::Harness which can preload
modules and fork to run each test. The problem was that using 'do' to execute
the test files post-fork was resuling in extra frames in the stack trace...
in other words there are a lot of tests that assume the test file is the
bottom of the stack. This happens all the time, specially if stack traces
need to be verified.
