NAME

Test2::Harness::Runner - Base class for test runners

DESCRIPTION

This module does the heavy lifting of running all the tests.

You should never need to create an instance of the runner yourself. In most cases the runner module is exposed via a callback or a plugin affordance.

These are attributesd with values set from the Test2::Harness::Settings instance created from command line arguments.

See App::Yath::Options::Runner for the most up to date documentation on these.

These attributes are set when the runner is created.

$path = $runner->dir: Path to the working directory.
$settings = $runner->settings: The App::Yath::Settings instance.
$coderef = $runner->fork_job_callback: Callback used to spawn new tests via fork.
$coderef = $runner->respawn_runner_callback: Callback to restart the runner process.
$bool = $runner->monitor_preloads: True if preloads should be watched for changes.
$int = $runner->jobs_todo: A count of total jobs to run. This will always be 0 in a persistent runner.

If a method is not documented here then it is an implementation detail and you should not use it.

$class = $runner->job_class: Class for new test jobs.
$preload = $runner->preloader: Get the Test2::Harness::Runner::Preloader instance.
$state = $runner->state: Get the Test2::Harness::Runner::State instance.
@list = $runner->all_libs: Get all the libs that should be added to @INC by default. Note that specific runs and even specific tests can have custom paths on top of these.
