NAME

6       File::HomeDir::Test - Prevent the accidental creation of user-owned
7       files during testing
8

SYNOPSIS

10         use Test::More test => 1;
11         use File::HomeDir::Test;
12         use File::HomeDir;
13

DESCRIPTION

15       File::HomeDir::Test is a File::HomeDir driver intended for use in the
16       test scripts of modules or applications that write files into user-
17       owned directories.
18
19       It is designed to prevent the pollution of user directories with files
20       that are not part of the application install itself, but were created
21       during testing. These files can leak state information from the tests
22       into the run-time usage of an application, and on Unix systems also
23       prevents tests (which may be executed as root via sudo) from writing
24       files which cannot later be modified or removed by the regular user.

SUPPORT
