Hi, I am writing a script for checking a filer. In order to test the script, I need predictable results and therefore use Test::MockObject to mock the answers from the server inside of the test-script. To have this mocked module being used by the tested script, I eval the tested-script, after reading it in by use of File::Slurp.

Bellow some code, the tested script is wrapped in a sub for simplicity.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use warnings;
use strict;
use feature qw(switch say);

use Test::More 'no_plan';
use Test::Trap;
use Test::MockObject;

my @r = trap { some_code() };

my $mock = Test::MockObject->new();
$mock->fake_module ('NaServer', 
                new    => sub { return 'NaServer' },
                set_style => sub ($) {return 'ok'},
                set_admin_user  => sub ($$) {return 'ok'},
                set_timeout  => sub ($$) {return 'ok'},
                );

use_ok( 'NaServer' )  or exit;
my $ob = NaServer->new();
isa_ok ($ob, 'NaServer');

sub some_code {
    say 'hello world';
    #use_ok( 'NaServer' )  or exit; ## commented out by intend!!
    my $o = NaServer->new();
    exit 111;
}

is ( $trap->exit, 111, 'Exit ist 111');

Any idea how I can trap the exit 111 and still have the code executed in the lexical context of the test-script (or get the mocked NaServer instead of the one, used by the tested-script)?

Just to make things clear: The real script I want to test, has the use NaServer line not commented out, but since the NaServer Module is already loaded in the test-situation its not used again.

Cheers, Ingo
