NAME

       Fennec::Manual::CustomFennec - Customizing Fennec for you project.

DESCRIPTION

       Fennec automatically loads several utilities for you. In addition it assumes you want to
       use Test::Builder. Subclassing Fennec will let you specify exactly what utilities you
       want, and what collector to use. This way you can use your subclass in each test file
       instead of copying "use Fennec ( YOUR CONFIG OPTIONS )" into each file.

FENNEC SUBCLASS

       You can subclass Fennec and override the defaults sub to your specification.  The defaults
       sub should return a list of Fennec import argument key-pairs.

       My/Fennec.pm
           use strict;
           use warnings;

           use base 'Fennec';

           sub defaults {
               my $class = shift;
               my %params = $class->SUPER::defaults;

               # Add a new autoloading utility with import arguments.
               push @{ $params->{utils} } => 'My::Util';
               $params->{'My::Util'} = [ 'util' => 'args' ];

               # Default number of concurrent procs for the test to use.
               $params->{parallel} = 3;

               return %params;
           }

           sub after_import {
               my $class = shift;
               my ($info) = @_;
               # $info is a hashref with the importer, runner, and importer meta
               # object, and some other fun things.

               # Example of adding cases to any Fennec test that uses this subclass:
               # The first arg to add case should be an array matching the return of
               # caller. The idea is to give us the start and end line, as well as
               # file name where the case is defined. normally the exports from
               # Test::Workflow provide that for you, but at this low-level we need to
               # provide it ourselfs. Since we define the subs here, we give current
               # line/file. Use the importer for package name.
               $info->{layer}->add_case([$info->{importer}, __FILE__, __LINE__], case_a => sub { $main::CASE_A = 1 });
               $info->{layer}->add_case([$info->{importer}, __FILE__, __LINE__], case_b => sub { $main::CASE_B = 1 });
           }

           1;

CUSTOM COLLECTOR

       The collector is responsible for 2 jobs: 1) In the parent process it is responsible for
       gathering all test results from the child processes.  2) In the child processes it is
       responsible for sending results to the parent process.

       If TAP is not your thing, or you want to use Fennec with existing tests that do not use
       Test::Builder, you can create a custom collector to work for you.

       Documentation for a custom Collector can be found in the Fennec::Collector POD.
