NAME
====
prove6 - Run tests through a TAP harness.
USAGE
=====
prove6 [options] [files or directories]
Boolean options:
-v, --verbose Print all test lines.
-l, --lib Add 'lib' to the path for your tests (-Ilib).
--shuffle Run the tests in random order.
--ignore-exit Ignore exit status from test scripts.
--reverse Run the tests in reverse order.
-q, --quiet Suppress some test output while running tests.
-Q, --QUIET Only print summary results.
--timer Print elapsed time after each test.
--trap Trap Ctrl-C and print summary on interrupt.
--help Display this help
--version Display the version
Options that take arguments:
-I, --incdir Library paths to include.
-e, --exec Interpreter to run the tests ('' for compiled
tests.)
--ext Set the extensions for tests (default <t rakutest t6>)
--harness Define test harness to use. See TAP::Harness.
--reporter Result reporter to use. See REPORTERS.
-j, --jobs Run N test jobs in parallel (try 9.)
--err=stderr Direct the test's $*ERR to the harness' $*ERR.
--err=merge Merge test scripts' $*ERR with their $*OUT.
--err=ignore Ignore test script' $*ERR.
NOTES
=====
Default Test Directory
----------------------
If no files or directories are supplied, `prove6` looks for all files matching the pattern `t/*.t`.
Colored Test Output
-------------------
Colored test output is the default, but if output is not to a terminal, color is disabled.
Color support requires `Terminal::ANSIColor` on Unix-like platforms. If the necessary module is not installed colored output will not be available.
Exit Code
---------
If the tests fail `prove6` will exit with non-zero status.
`-e`
----
Normally you can just pass a list of Perl 6 tests and the harness will know how to execute them. However, if your tests are not written in Perl 6 or if you want all tests invoked exactly the same way, use the `-e` switch:
prove6 -e='/usr/bin/ruby -w' t/
prove6 -e='/usr/bin/perl -Tw -mstrict -Ilib' t/
prove6 -e='/path/to/my/customer/exec'
`--err`
-------
* `--err=stderr`
Direct the test's $*ERR to the harness' $*ERR.
This is the default behavior.
* `--err=merge`
If you need to make sure your diagnostics are displayed in the correct order relative to test results you can use the `--err=merge` option to merge the test scripts' $*ERR into their $*OUT.
This guarantees that $*OUT (where the test results appear) and $*ERR (where the diagnostics appear) will stay in sync. The harness will display any diagnostics your tests emit on $*ERR.
Caveat: this is a bit of a kludge. In particular note that if anything that appears on $*ERR looks like a test result the test harness will get confused. Use this option only if you understand the consequences and can live with the risk.
PS: Currently not supported.
* `--err=ignore`
Ignore the test script' $*ERR
`--trap`
--------
The `--trap` option will attempt to trap SIGINT (Ctrl-C) during a test run and display the test summary even if the run is interrupted
$*REPO
------
`prove6` introduces a separation between "options passed to the perl which runs prove" and "options passed to the perl which runs tests"; this distinction is by design. Thus the perl which is running a test starts with the default `$*REPO`. Additional library directories can be added via the `PERL6LIB` environment variable, via -Ifoo in `PERL6OPT` or via the `-Ilib` option to `prove6`.
