METHODS

   new
         my $test = Devel::Cover::Test->new($test, criteria => $string)

       Constructor.

       "criteria" parameter (optional, defaults to "statement branch condition subroutine") is a
       space separated list of tokens.  Supported tokens are "statement", "branch", "condition",
       "subroutine" and "pod".

       More optional parameters are supported. Refer to "get_params" sub.

   shell_quote
         my $quoted_item = shell_quote($item)

       Returns properly quoted item to cope with embedded spaces.

   perl
         my $perl = $self->perl

       Returns absolute path to Perl interpreter with proper -I options (blib-wise).

   test_command
         my $command = $self->test_command

       Returns test command, made of:

       absolute path to Perl interpreter
       Devel::Cover -M option (if applicable)
       test file
       test file parameters (if applicable)

   cover_command
         my $command = $self->cover_command

       Returns test command, made of:

       absolute path to Perl interpreter
       absolute path to cover script
       cover parameters

   test_file
         my $file = $self->test_file

       Returns absolute path to test file.

   test_file_parameters
         my $parameters = $self->test_file_parameters

       Accessor to test_file_parameters property.

   get_params
       Populates the keys "criteria", "select", "test_parameters", "db_name", "cover_db",
       "cover_parameters" and "skip" using the "test_file" if available otherwise sets the
       default.

   cover_gold
         my ($base, $v) = $self->cover_gold;

       Returns the absolute path of the base to the golden file and the suffix version number.

       $base comes from the name of the test and $v will be $] from the earliest perl version for
       which the golden results should be the same as for the current $]

       $v will be overridden if installed libraries' versions dictate; for instance, if
       Math::BigInt is at version > 1.999806, then the version of Perl will be overridden as
       though it is 5.26.

   run_command
         $self->run_command($command)

       Runs command, most likely obtained from "test_command" sub.
