NAME

       Test2::Plugin::SRand - Control the random seed for more controlled test environments.

DESCRIPTION

       This module gives you control over the random seed used for your unit tests. In some
       testing environments the random seed can play a major role in results.

       The default configuration for this module will seed srand with the local date.  Using the
       date as the seed means that on any given day the random seed will always be the same, this
       means behavior will not change from run to run on a given day. However the seed is
       different on different days allowing you to be sure the code still works with actual
       randomness.

       The seed is printed for you on failure, or when the harness is verbose. You can use the
       "T2_RAND_SEED" environment variable to specify the seed. You can also provide a specific
       seed as a load-time argument to the plugin.

SYNOPSIS

       Loading the plugin is easy, and the defaults are sane:

           use Test2::Plugin::SRand;

       Custom seed:

           use Test2::Plugin::SRand 42;

NOTE ON LOAD ORDER

       If you use this plugin you probably want to use it as the first, or near-first plugin.
       "srand" is not called until the plugin is loaded, so other plugins loaded first may
       already be making use of random numbers before your seed takes effect.
