Test::Version(3)

NAME
Test::Version - Check to see that version's in modules are sane

VERSION
version 1.002004

SYNOPSIS
        use Test::More;
        use Test::Version 1.001001 qw( version_all_ok ), {
                        is_strict   => 0,
                        has_version => 1,
                };

        # test blib or lib by default
        version_all_ok();

        done_testing;

DESCRIPTION
This module's goal is to be a one stop shop for checking to see that your versions across your dist are sane. Please ensure that you use version 0.04 or later only, as earlier versions are old code and may not work correctly. Current feature list:

module has a version
    Tests to insure that all modules checked have a VERSION defined, Can replace Test::HasVersion

module has a valid version
    Tests to insure that all versions are valid, according to the rules of version method "is_lax". To quote:

    The lax criteria corresponds to what is currently allowed by the version parser. All of the following formats are acceptable for dotted-decimal formats strings:

            v1.2
            1.2345.6
            v1.23_4
            1.2345
            1.2345_01

    If you want to limit yourself to a much more narrow definition of what a version string constitutes, is_strict() is limited to version strings like the following list:

            v1.234.5
            2.3456

    you can cause your tests to fail if not strict by setting is_strict to 1

FUNCTIONS

  version_ok
        version_ok( $filename, [ $name ] );

Test a single ".pm" file by passing a path to the function. Checks if the module has a version, and that it is valid with "is_lax".

  version_all_ok
        version_all_ok( [ $directory, [ $name ]] );

Test all modules in a directory with "version_ok". By default it will check "blib" or "lib" if you haven't passed it a directory.

CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT

  has_version
        use Test::Version qw( version_all_ok ), { has_version => 0 };

Allows disabling whether a module has to have a version. If set to 0 version tests will be skipped in any module where no version is found.

really doesn't make sense to use with just version_ok

  is_strict
        use Test::Version { is_strict => 1 };

this allows enabling of versions "is_strict" checks to ensure that your version is strict.

SEE ALSO
The goal is to have the functionality of all of these.

Test::HasVersion
Test::ConsistentVersion
Test::GreaterVersion
