NAME

       Test::Dependencies - Ensure that your Makefile.PL specifies all module dependencies

VERSION

       Version 0.12

SYNOPSIS

       In your t/00-dependencies.t:

           use Test::Dependencies exclude =>
             [qw/ Your::Namespace Some::Other::Namespace /];

           ok_dependencies();

DESCRIPTION

       Makes sure that all of the modules that are 'use'd are listed in the Makefile.PL as
       dependencies.

OPTIONS

       You can pass options to the module via the 'use' line.  The available options are:

       exclude
           Specifies the list of namespaces for which it is ok not to have specified
           dependencies.

       style
           Specifies the style of module usage checking to use.  There are two valid values:
           "light" and "heavy".  The default is heavy.  The light style uses regular expressions
           to try and guess which modules are required.  It is fast, but can get confused by
           here-docs, multi-line strings, data sections, etc.  The heavy style actually compiles
           the file and asks perl which modules were used.  It is slower than the light style,
           but much more accurate.  If you have a very large project and you don't want to wait
           for the heavy style every time you run "make test," you might want to try the light
           style or look into the overrides below.

           Whether a style is specified or not, the style used can be overriden by the
           environment variable TDSTYLE.  This is useful, for example, if you want the heavy
           style to be used normally, but don't want to take the time checking dependencies on
           your smoke test server.

           Example usage:

             use Test::Dependencies
               exclude => ['Test::Dependencies'],
               style => 'light';

EXPORTED FUNCTIONS

   ok_dependencies
       This should be the only test called in the test file.  It scans bin/ and lib/ for module
       usage and t/ for build usage.  It will then test that all modules used are listed as
       required in Makefile.PL, all modules used in t/ are listed as build required, that all
       modules listed are actually used, and that modules that are listed are not in the core
       list.

BUGS

       •   Test::Dependencies does not track module version requirements.

       •   Perl version for "already in core" test failures is hardcoded.
