NAME

Test::CheckDeps - Check for presence of dependencies

VERSION

version 0.010

SYNOPSIS

 use Test::More 0.94;
 use Test::CheckDeps 0.007;
 
 check_dependencies();
 done_testing();

DESCRIPTION

This module adds a test that assures all dependencies have been installed properly. If requested, it can bail out all testing on error.

FUNCTIONS

check_dependencies( [ level ])

Check dependencies based on a local MYMETA or META file.

The "level" argument is optional. It can be one of:

  • requires

    All 'requires' dependencies are checked (the configure, build, test and runtime phases are always checked, and the develop phase is also tested when AUTHOR_TESTING is set)

  • classic

    As "requires", but 'conflicts' dependencies are also checked.

  • recommends

    As "classic", but 'recommends' dependencies are also checked, as TODO tests.

  • suggests

    As "recommends", but 'suggests' dependencies are also checked, as TODO tests.

When not provided, "level" defaults to "classic" ('requires' and 'conflicts' dependencies are checked).

check_dependencies_opts($meta, $phase, $type)

Check dependencies in CPAN::Meta object $meta for phase $phase (configure, build, test, runtime, develop) and type $type(requires, recommends, suggests, conflicts). You probably just want to use "check_dependencies" though.
