NAME

6       TAP::Harness::Archive - Create an archive of TAP test results
7

SYNOPSIS

9           use TAP::Harness::Archive;
10           my $harness = TAP::Harness::Archive->new(\%args);
11           $harness->runtests(@tests);
12

DESCRIPTION

14       This module is a direct subclass of TAP::Harness and behaves in exactly
15       the same way except for one detail. In addition to outputting a running
16       progress of the tests and an ending summary it can also capture all of
17       the raw TAP from the individual test files or streams into an archive
18       file (".tar" or ".tar.gz").
19

METHODS

21       All methods are exactly the same as our base TAP::Harness except for
22       the following.
23
24   new
25       In addition to the options that TAP::Harness allow to this method, we
26       also allow the following:
27
28       archive
29           This is the name of the archive file to generate. We use
30           Archive::Tar in the background so we only support ".tar" and
31           ".tar.gz" archive file formats. This can optionally be an existing
32           directory that will have the TAP archive's contents deposited
33           therein without any file archiving (no Archive::Tar involved).
34
35       extra_files
36           This is an array reference to extra files that you want to include
37           in the TAP archive but which are not TAP files themselves. This is
38           useful if you want to include some log files that contain useful
39           information about the test run.
40
41       extra_properties
42           This is a hash reference of extra properties that you've collected
43           during your test run. Some things you might want to include are the
44           Perl version, the system's architecture, the operating system, etc.
45
46   runtests
47       Takes the same arguments as TAP::Harness's version and returns the same
48       thing (a TAP::Parser::Aggregator object). The only difference is that
49       in addition to the normal test running and progress output we also
50       create the TAP Archive when it's all done.
51
52   aggregator_from_archive
53       This class method will return a TAP::Parser::Aggregator object when
54       given a TAP Archive to open and parse. It's pretty much the reverse of
55       creating a TAP Archive from using "new" and "runtests".
56
57       It takes a hash of arguments which are as follows:
58
59       archive
60           The path to the archive file. This can also be a directory if you
61           created the archive as a directory.  This is required.
62
63       parser_callbacks
64           This is a hash ref containing callbacks for the TAP::Parser objects
65           that are created while parsing the TAP files. See the TAP::Parser
66           documentation for details about these callbacks.
67
68       made_parser_callback
69           This callback is executed every time a new TAP::Parser object is
70           created. It will be passed the new parser object, the name of the
71           file to be parsed, and also the full (temporary) path of that file.
72
73       meta_yaml_callback
74           This is a subroutine that will be called if we find and parse a
75           YAML file containing meta information about the test run in the
76           archive.  The structure of the YAML file will be passed in as an
77           argument.
78
79           my $aggregator = TAP::Harness::Archive->aggregator_from_archive(
80               {
81                   archive          => 'my_tests.tar.gz',
82                   parser_callbacks => {
83                       plan    => sub { warn "Nice to see you plan ahead..." },
84                       unknown => sub { warn "Your TAP is bad!" },
85                   },
86                   made_parser_callback => sub {
87                       my ($parser, $file, $full_path) = @_;
88                       warn "$file is temporarily located at $full_path\n";
89                   }
90
91               }
92           );
