=head1 NAME

Test::Perl::Critic - Use Perl::Critic in test programs

=head1 SYNOPSIS

Test one file:

  use Test::Perl::Critic;
  use Test::More tests => 1;
  critic_ok($file);

Or test all files in one or more directories:

  use Test::Perl::Critic;
  all_critic_ok($dir_1, $dir_2, $dir_N );

Or test all files in a distribution:

  use Test::Perl::Critic;
  all_critic_ok();

Recommended usage for CPAN distributions:

  use strict;
  use warnings;
  use File::Spec;
  use Test::More;
  use English qw(-no_match_vars);

  if ( not $ENV{TEST_AUTHOR} ) {
      my $msg = 'Author test.  Set $ENV{TEST_AUTHOR} to a true value to run.';
      plan( skip_all => $msg );
  }

  eval { require Test::Perl::Critic; };

  if ( $EVAL_ERROR ) {
     my $msg = 'Test::Perl::Critic required to criticise code';
     plan( skip_all => $msg );
  }

  my $rcfile = File::Spec->catfile( 't', 'perlcriticrc' );
  Test::Perl::Critic->import( -profile => $rcfile );
  all_critic_ok();


=head1 DESCRIPTION

Test::Perl::Critic wraps the L<Perl::Critic> engine in a convenient subroutine
suitable for test programs written using the L<Test::More> framework.  This
makes it easy to integrate coding-standards enforcement into the build
process.  For ultimate convenience (at the expense of some flexibility), see
the L<criticism> pragma.

If you have an large existing code base, you might prefer to use
L<Test::Perl::Critic::Progressive>, which allows you to clean your code
incrementally instead of all at once..

If you'd like to try L<Perl::Critic> without installing anything, there is a
web-service available at L<http://perlcritic.com>.  The web-service does not
support all the configuration features that are available in the native
Perl::Critic API, but it should give you a good idea of what Perl::Critic can
do.

=head1 SUBROUTINES

=over

=item critic_ok( $FILE [, $TEST_NAME ] )

Okays the test if Perl::Critic does not find any violations in $FILE.  If it
does, the violations will be reported in the test diagnostics.  The optional
second argument is the name of test, which defaults to "Perl::Critic test for
$FILE".

If you use this form, you should load L<Test::More> and emit your own test plan
first or call C<done_testing()> afterwards.

=item all_critic_ok( [ @DIRECTORIES ] )

Runs C<critic_ok()> for all Perl files beneath the given list of
C<@DIRECTORIES>.  If C<@DIRECTORIES> is empty or not given, this function
tries to find all Perl files in the F<blib/> directory.  If the F<blib/>
directory does not exist, then it tries the F<lib/> directory.  Returns true
if all files are okay, or false if any file fails.

This subroutine emits its own test plan, so you do not need to specify the
expected number of tests or call C<done_testing()>. Therefore, C<all_critic_ok>
generally cannot be used in a test script that includes other sorts of tests.

=item all_code_files ( [@DIRECTORIES] )

B<DEPRECATED:> Use the C<all_perl_files> subroutine that is exported by
L<Perl::Critic::Utils> instead.

Returns a list of all the Perl files found beneath each DIRECTORY, If
@DIRECTORIES is an empty list, defaults to F<blib/>.  If F<blib/> does not
exist, it tries F<lib/>.  Skips any files in CVS or Subversion directories.

A Perl file is:

=over

=item * Any file that ends in F<.PL>, F<.pl>, F<.pm>, or F<.t>

=item * Any file that has a first line with a shebang containing 'perl'

=head1 CONFIGURATION

L<Perl::Critic> is highly configurable.  By default, Test::Perl::Critic
invokes Perl::Critic with its default configuration.  But if you have
developed your code against a custom Perl::Critic configuration, you will want
to configure Test::Perl::Critic to do the same.

Any arguments passed through the C<use> pragma (or via C<<
Test::Perl::Critic->import() >> )will be passed into the L<Perl::Critic>
constructor.  So if you have developed your code using a custom
F<~/.perlcriticrc> file, you can direct L<Test::Perl::Critic> to use your
custom file too.

  use Test::Perl::Critic (-profile => 't/perlcriticrc');
  all_critic_ok();

Now place a copy of your own F<~/.perlcriticrc> file in the distribution as
F<t/perlcriticrc>.  Then, C<critic_ok()> will be run on all Perl files in this
distribution using this same Perl::Critic configuration.  See the
L<Perl::Critic> documentation for details on the F<.perlcriticrc> file format.

Any argument that is supported by the L<Perl::Critic> constructor can be
passed through this interface.  For example, you can also set the minimum
severity level, or include & exclude specific policies like this:

  use Test::Perl::Critic (-severity => 2, -exclude => ['RequireRcsKeywords']);
  all_critic_ok();

See the L<Perl::Critic> documentation for complete details on its
options and arguments.

=head1 DIAGNOSTIC DETAILS

By default, Test::Perl::Critic displays basic information about each Policy
violation in the diagnostic output of the test.  You can customize the format
and content of this information by using the C<-verbose> option.  This behaves
exactly like the C<-verbose> switch on the F<perlcritic> program.  For
example:

  use Test::Perl::Critic (-verbose => 6);

  #or...

  use Test::Perl::Critic (-verbose => '%f: %m at %l');

If given a number, L<Test::Perl::Critic> reports violations using one of the
predefined formats described below. If given a string, it is interpreted to be
an actual format specification. If the C<-verbose> option is not specified, it
defaults to 3.

    Verbosity     Format Specification
    -----------   -------------------------------------------------------
     1            "%f:%l:%c:%m\n",
     2            "%f: (%l:%c) %m\n",
     3            "%m at %f line %l\n",
     4            "%m at line %l, column %c.  %e.  (Severity: %s)\n",
     5            "%f: %m at line %l, column %c.  %e.  (Severity: %s)\n",
     6            "%m at line %l, near '%r'.  (Severity: %s)\n",
     7            "%f: %m at line %l near '%r'.  (Severity: %s)\n",
     8            "[%p] %m at line %l, column %c.  (Severity: %s)\n",
     9            "[%p] %m at line %l, near '%r'.  (Severity: %s)\n",
    10            "%m at line %l, column %c.\n  %p (Severity: %s)\n%d\n",
    11            "%m at line %l, near '%r'.\n  %p (Severity: %s)\n%d\n"

Formats are a combination of literal and escape characters similar to the way
C<sprintf> works. See L<String::Format> for a full explanation of the
formatting capabilities. Valid escape characters are:

    Escape    Meaning
    -------   ----------------------------------------------------------------
    %c        Column number where the violation occurred
    %d        Full diagnostic discussion of the violation (DESCRIPTION in POD)
    %e        Explanation of violation or page numbers in PBP
    %F        Just the name of the logical file where the violation occurred.
    %f        Path to the logical file where the violation occurred.
    %G        Just the name of the physical file where the violation occurred.
    %g        Path to the physical file where the violation occurred.
    %l        Logical line number where the violation occurred
    %L        Physical line number where the violation occurred
    %m        Brief description of the violation
    %P        Full name of the Policy module that created the violation
    %p        Name of the Policy without the Perl::Critic::Policy:: prefix
    %r        The string of source code that caused the violation
    %C        The class of the PPI::Element that caused the violation
    %s        The severity level of the violation


=head1 CAVEATS

Despite the convenience of using a test script to enforce your coding
standards, there are some inherent risks when distributing those tests to
others.  Since you don't know which version of L<Perl::Critic> the end-user
has and whether they have installed any additional Policy modules, you can't
really be sure that your code will pass the Test::Perl::Critic tests on
another machine.

B<For these reasons, we strongly advise you to make your perlcritic tests
optional, or exclude them from the distribution entirely.>

The recommended usage in the L<"SYNOPSIS"> section illustrates one way to make
your F<perlcritic.t> test optional.  Another option is to put F<perlcritic.t>
and other author-only tests in a separate directory (F<xt/> seems to be
common), and then use a custom build action when you want to run them.  Also,
you should B<not> list Test::Perl::Critic as a requirement in your build
script.  These tests are only relevant to the author and should not be a
prerequisite for end-use.

See L<http://chrisdolan.net/talk/2005/11/14/private-regression-tests/>
for an interesting discussion about Test::Perl::Critic and other types
of author-only regression tests.
