NAME

       Perl::Critic::Policy::TestingAndDebugging::RequireUseWarnings - Always "use warnings".

AFFILIATION

       This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.

DESCRIPTION

       Using warnings, and paying attention to what they say, is probably the single most effective way to
       improve the quality of your code.  This policy requires that the 'use warnings' statement must come
       before any other statements except "package", "require", and other "use" statements.  Thus, all the code
       in the entire package will be affected.

       There are special exemptions for Moose, Moose::Role, and Moose::Util::TypeConstraints because they
       enforces warnings; e.g.  'use Moose' is treated as equivalent to 'use warnings'.

       This policy will not complain if the file explicitly states that it is compatible with a version of perl
       prior to 5.6 via an include statement, e.g. by having "require 5.005" in it.

       The maximum number of violations per document for this policy defaults to 1.

CONFIGURATION

       If you make use of things like Moose::Exporter, you can create your own modules that import the warnings
       pragma into the code that is "use"ing them.  There is an option to add to the default set of pragmata and
       modules in your .perlcriticrc: "equivalent_modules".

           [TestingAndDebugging::RequireUseWarnings]
           equivalent_modules = MooseX::My::Sugar

BUGS

       Needs to check for -w on the shebang line.
