Hello dear esteemed monks!
Update: Test::Regression
Is there already a module that allows to run a piece of code and, depending on arguments, either write results to a file, or compare with a previous such file? And is there a name for the concept in general? Searching for save load test on CPAN was somewhat cluttered...
So I need something along the lines of:
use Test::More;
use Test::SaveLoad;
use My::Module; # system under test
# load previous results & compare
my $sl = Test::SaveLoad->new( load => $filename );
# save results for future (in Dumper?..)
my $sl = Test::SaveLoad->new( save => $filename );
# do actual testing
plan tests => 1 if $sl->is_testing;
$sl->test( "Basic usecase" => sub {
My::Module->load_data( id => 42 );
});
# returns eq_or_diff-like line-by-line comparison
It's not that hard to write, but maybe there is something like that?
thank you

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
