NAME

       Test2::Manual::Testing::Planning - The many ways to set a plan.

DESCRIPTION

       This tutorial covers the many ways of setting a plan.

TEST COUNT

       The "plan()" function is provided by Test2::Tools::Basic. This function lets you specify
       an exact number of tests to run. This can be done at the start of testing, or at the end.
       This cannot be done partway through testing.

           use Test2::Tools::Basic;
           plan(10); # 10 tests expected

           ...

DONE TESTING

       The "done_testing()" function is provided by Test2::Tools::Basic. This function will
       automatically set the plan to the number of tests that were run.  This must be used at the
       very end of testing.

           use Test2::Tools::Basic;

           ...

           done_testing();

SKIP ALL

       The "skip_all()" function is provided by Test2::Tools::Basic. This function will set the
       plan to 0, and exit the test immediately. You may provide a skip reason that explains why
       the test should be skipped.

           use Test2::Tools::Basic;
           skip_all("This test will not run here") if ...;

           ...

CUSTOM PLAN EVENT

       A plan is simply an Test2::Event::Plan event that gets sent to the current hub. You could
       always write your own tool to set the plan.

           use Test2::API qw/context/;

           sub set_plan {
               my $count = @_;

               my $ctx = context();
               $ctx->send_event('Plan', max => $count);
               $ctx->release;

               return $count;
           }
