NAME

       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Test::ReportPrereqs - Report on prerequisite versions during
       automated testing

VERSION

       version 0.010

SYNOPSIS

         # in dist.ini
         [Test::ReportPrereqs]
         include = Acme::FYI
         exclude = Acme::Dont::Care

DESCRIPTION

       This Dist::Zilla plugin adds a t/00-report-prereqs.t test file. It reports the version of
       all modules listed in the distribution metadata prerequisites (including 'recommends',
       'suggests', etc.).  However, any 'develop' prereqs are not reported (unless they show up
       in another category).

       If a MYMETA.json file exists and CPAN::Meta is installed on the testing machine,
       MYMETA.json will be examined for prerequisites in addition, as it would include any
       dynamic prerequisites not set in the distribution metadata.

       Versions are reported based on the result of "parse_version" from ExtUtils::MakeMaker,
       which means prerequisite modules are not actually loaded (which avoids various edge cases
       with certain modules). Parse errors are reported as "undef".  If a module is not
       installed, "missing" is reported instead of a version string.

       Additionally, if CPAN::Meta is installed, unfulfilled required prerequisites are reported
       after the list of all versions based on either MYMETA (preferably) or META (fallback).

CONFIGURATION

   include
       An "include" attribute can be specified (multiple times) to add modules to the report.
       This can be useful if there is a module in the dependency chain that is problematic but is
       not directly required by this project.

   exclude
       An "exclude" attribute can be specified (multiple times) to remove modules from the report
       (if you had a reason to do so).

   verify_prereqs
       When set, installed versions of all 'requires' prerequisites are verified against those
       specified.  Defaults to true.

SEE ALSO

       Other Dist::Zilla::Plugins do similar things in slightly different ways that didn't suit
       my style and needs.

       •   Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Test::PrereqsFromMeta -- requires prereqs to be satisfied

       •   Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Test::ReportVersions -- bundles a copy of YAML::Tiny, reads
           prereqs only from META.yml, and attempts to load them with "require"

       •   Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ReportVersions::Tiny -- static list only, loads modules with
           "require"
