NAME

Data::Hive::Test - a bundle of tests for Data::Hive stores

VERSION

version 1.015

SYNOPSIS

  use Test::More;

  use Data::Hive::Test;
  use Data::Hive::Store::MyNewStore;

  Data::Hive::Test->test_new_hive({ store_class => 'MyNewStore' });

  # rest of your tests for your store

  done_testing;

DESCRIPTION

Data::Hive::Test is a library of tests that should be passable for any conformant Data::Hive::Store implementation. It provides a method for running a suite of tests -- which may expand or change -- that check the behavior of a hive store by building a hive around it and testing its behavior.

PERL VERSION

This library should run on perls released even a long time ago. It should work on any version of perl released in the last five years.

Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the minimum required version will not be increased. The version may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.

METHODS

test_new_hive

  Data::Hive::Test->test_new_hive( $desc, \%args_to_NEW );

This method expects an (optional) description followed by a hashref of arguments to be passed to Data::Hive's NEW method. A new hive will be constructed with those arguments and a single subtest will be run, including subtests that should pass against any conformant Data::Hive::Store implementation.

If the tests pass, the method will return the hive. If they fail, the method will return false.

test_existing_hive

  Data::Hive::Test->test_existing_hive( $desc, $hive );

This method behaves just like test_new_hive, but expects a hive rather than arguments to use to build one.
