Test::Deep uses the Test::Builder framework. Test::Deep gives you very flexible ways to check that the result you got is the result you were expecting. At it's simplest it compares two structures by going through each level, ensuring that the values match, that arrays and hashes have the same elements and that references are blessed into the correct class. It also handles circular data structures without getting caught in an infinite loop. Where it becomes more interesting is in allowing you to do something besides simple exact comparisons. With strings, the C<eq> operator checks that 2 strings are exactly equal but sometimes that's not what you want. When you don't know exactly what the string should be but you do know some things about how it should look, C<eq> is no good and you must use pattern matching instead. Test::Deep provides pattern matching for complex data structures Test::Deep has B<I<a lot>> of exports. See L</EXPORTS> below. =head1 EXAMPLES How Test::Deep works is much easier to understand by seeing some examples. =head2 Without Test::Deep Say you want to test a function which returns a string. You know that your string should be a 7 digit number beginning with 0, C<eq> is no good in this situation, you need a regular expression. So you could use Test::More's C<like()> function: like($string, '/^0d{6}$/', "number looks good"); Similarly, to check that a string looks like a name, you could do: like($string, '/^(Mr|Mrs|Miss) \w+ \w+$/', "got title, first and last name"); Now imagine your function produces a hash with some personal details in it. You want to make sure that there are 2 keys, Name and Phone and that the name looks like a name and the phone number looks like a phone number. You could do: $hash = make_person(); like($hash->{Name}, '/^(Mr|Mrs|Miss) \w+ \w+$/', "name ok"); like($hash->{Phone}, '/^0d{6}$/', "phone ok"); is(scalar keys %$hash, 2, "correct number of keys"); But that's not quite right, what if make_person has a serious problem and didn't even return a hash? We really need to write if (ref($hash) eq "HASH") { like($hash->{Name}, '/^(Mr|Mrs|Miss) \w+ \w+$/', "name ok"); like($hash->{Phone}, '/^0d{6}$/', "phone ok"); is(scalar keys %$hash, 2, "correct number of keys"); } else { fail("person not a hash"); fail("person not a hash"); fail("person not a hash"); # need 3 to keep the plan correct } Already this is getting messy, now imagine another entry in the hash, an array of children's names. This would require if (ref($hash) eq "HASH") { like($hash->{Name}, $name_pat, "name ok"); like($hash->{Phone}, '/^0d{6}$/', "phone ok"); my $cn = $hash->{ChildNames}; if (ref($cn) eq "ARRAY") { foreach my $child (@$cn) { like($child, $name_pat); } } else { fail("child names not an array") } } else { fail("person not a hash"); } This is a horrible mess and because we don't know in advance how many children's names there will be, we can't make a plan for our test anymore (actually, we could but it would make things even more complicated). Test::Deep to the rescue. =head2 With Test::Deep my $name_re = re('^(Mr|Mrs|Miss) \w+ \w+$'); cmp_deeply( $person, { Name => $name_re, Phone => re('^0d{6}$'), ChildNames => array_each($name_re) }, "person ok" ); This will do everything that the messy code above does and it will give a sensible message telling you exactly what went wrong if it finds a part of $person that doesn't match the pattern. C<re()> and C<array_each()> are special function imported from Test::Deep. They create a marker that tells Test::Deep that something different is happening here. Instead of just doing a simple comparison and checking are two things exactly equal, it should do something else. If a person was asked to check that 2 structures are equal, they could print them both out and compare them line by line. The markers above are similar to writing a note in red pen on one of the printouts telling the person that for this piece of the structure, they should stop doing simple line by line comparison and do something else. C<re($regex)> means that Test::Deep should check that the current piece of data matches the regex in C<$regex>. C<array_each($struct)> means that Test::Deep should expect the current piece of data to be an array and it should check that every element of that array matches C<$struct>. In this case, every element of C<< $person->{ChildNames} >> should look like a name. If say the 3rd one didn't you would get an error message something like Using Regexp on $data->{ChildNames}[3] got : 'Queen John Paul Sartre' expect : /^(Mr|Mrs|Miss) \w+ \w+$/ There are lots of other special comparisons available, see L<SPECIAL COMPARISONS PROVIDED> below for the full list. =head2 Reusing structures Test::Deep is good for reusing test structures so you can do this my $name_re = re('^(Mr|Mrs|Miss) \w+ \w+$'); my $person_cmp = { Name => $name_re, Phone => re('^0d{6}$'), ChildNames => array_each($name_re) }; cmp_deeply($person1, $person_cmp, "person ok"); cmp_deeply($person2, $person_cmp, "person ok"); cmp_deeply($person3, $person_cmp, "person ok"); You can even put $person_cmp in a module and let other people use it when they are writing test scripts for modules that use your modules. To make things a little more difficult, lets change the person data structure so that instead of a list of ChildNames, it contains a list of hashes, one for each child. So in fact our person structure will contain other person structures which may contain other person structures and so on. This is easy to handle with Test::Deep because Test::Deep structures can include themselves. Simply do my $name_re = re('^(Mr|Mrs|Miss) \w+ \w+$'); my $person_cmp = { Name => $name_re, Phone => re('^0d{6}$'), # note no mention of Children here }; $person_cmp->{Children} = array_each($person_cmp); cmp_deeply($person, $person_cmp, "person ok"); This will now check that $person->{Children} is an array and that every element of that array also matches C<$person_cmp>, this includes checking that it's children also match the same pattern and so on. =head2 Circular data structures A circular data structure is one which loops back on itself, you can make one easily by doing my @b; my @a = (1, 2, 3, \@b); push(@b, \@a); now @a contains a reference to be @b and @b contains a reference to @a. This causes problems if you have a program that wants to look inside @a and keep looking deeper and deeper at every level, it could get caught in an infinite loop looking into @a then @b then @a then @b and so on. Test::Deep avoids this problem so we can extend our example further by saying that a person should also list their parents. my $name_re = re('^(Mr|Mrs|Miss) \w+ \w+$'); my $person_cmp = { Name => $name_re, Phone => re('^0d{6}$'), # note no mention of Children here }; $person_cmp->{Children} = each_array($person_cmp); $person_cmp->{Parents} = each_array($person_cmp); cmp_deeply($person, $person_cmp, "person ok"); So this will check that for each child C<$child> in C<< $person->{Children} >> that the C<< $child->{Parents} >> matches C<$person_cmp> however it is smart enough not to get caught in an infinite loop where it keeps bouncing between the same Parent and Child. =head1 TERMINOLOGY C<cmp_deeply($got, $expected, $name)> takes 3 arguments. C<$got> is the structure that you are checking, you must not include any special comparisons in this structure or you will get a fatal error. C<$expected> describes what Test::Deep will be looking for in $got. You can put special comparisons in $expected if you want to. As Test::Deep descends through the 2 structures, it compares them one piece at a time, so at any point in the process, Test::Deep is thinking about 2 things - the current value from C<$got> and the current value from C<$expected>. In the documentation, I call them C<$got_v> and C<exp_v> respectively. =head1 COMPARISON FUNCTIONS =head3 $ok = cmp_deeply($got, $expected, $name) $got is the result to be checked. $expected is the structure against which $got will be check. $name is the test name. This is the main comparison function, the others are just wrappers around this. Without any special comparisons, it will descend into $expected, following every reference and comparing C<$expected_v> to C<$got_v> (using C<eq>) at the same position. If at any stage C<$expected_v> is a special comparison then Test::Deep may do something else besides a simple string comparison, exactly what it does depends on which special comparison it is. =head3 $ok = cmp_bag(\@got, \@bag, $name) Is shorthand for cmp_deeply(\@got, bag(@bag), $name) N.B. Both arguments must be array refs. If they aren't an error will be raised via die. =head3 $ok = cmp_set(\@got, \@set, $name) Is shorthand for cmp_deeply(\@got, set(@set), $name) =head3 $ok = cmp_methods(\@got, \@methods, $name) Is shorthand for cmp_deeply(\@got, methods(@methods), $name) =head3 $ok = eq_deeply($got, $expected) This is the same as cmp_deeply() except it just returns true or false. It does not create diagnostics or talk to L<Test::Builder>, but if you want to use it in a non-testing environment then you should import it through L<Test::Deep::NoTest>. For example use Test::Deep::NoTest; print "a equals b" unless eq_deeply($a, $b); otherwise the L<Test::Builder> framework will be loaded and testing messages will be output when your program ends. =head3 ($ok, $stack) = cmp_details($got, $expected) This behaves much like eq_deeply, but it additionally allows you to produce diagnostics in case of failure by passing the value in C<$stack> to C<deep_diag>. Do not make assumptions about the structure or content of C<$stack> and do not use it if C<$ok> contains a true value. See L</USING TEST::DEEP WITH TEST::BUILDER> for example uses. =head1 SPECIAL COMPARISONS PROVIDED =head3 ignore() This makes Test::Deep skip tests on $got_v. No matter what value C<$got_v> has, Test::Deep will think it's correct. This is useful if some part of the structure you are testing is very complicated and already tested elsewhere, or is unpredictable. cmp_deeply($got, { name => 'John', random => ignore(), address => ['5 A street', 'a town', 'a country'], }) is the equivalent of checking $got->{name} eq 'John'; exists $got->{random}; cmp_deeply($got->{address}; ['5 A street', 'a town', 'a country']); =head3 methods(%hash) %hash is a hash of method call => expected value pairs. This lets you call methods on an object and check the result of each call. The methods will be called in the order supplied. If you want to pass arguments to the method you should wrap the method name and arguments in an array reference. cmp_deeply( $obj, methods(name => "John", ["favourite", "food"] => "taco") ); is roughly the equivalent of checking that $obj->name eq "John" $obj->favourite("food") eq "taco" The methods will be called in the order you supply them and will be called in scalar context. If you need to test methods called in list context then you should use listmethods(). B<NOTE> Just as in a normal test script, you need to be careful if the methods you call have side effects like changing the object or other objects in the structure. Although the order of the methods is fixed, the order of some other tests is not so if $expected is { manager => methods(@manager_methods), coder => methods(@coder_methods) } there is no way to know which if manager and coder will be tested first. If the methods you are testing depend on and alter global variables or if manager and coder are the same object then you may run into problems. =head3 listmethods(%hash) %hash is a hash of method call => expected value pairs. This is almost identical to methods() except the methods are called in list context instead of scalar context. This means that the expected values supplied must be an array reference. cmp_deeply( $obj, listmethods( name => "John", ["favourites", "food"] => ["Mapo tofu", "Gongbao chicken"] ) ); is the equivalent of checking that $obj->name eq "John" cmp_deeply([$obj->favourites("food")], ["Mapo tofu", "Gongbao chicken"]); The methods will be called in the order you supply them. B<NOTE> The same caveats apply as for methods(). =head3 shallow($thing) $thing is a ref. This prevents Test::Deep from looking inside $thing. It allows you to check that $got_v and $thing are references to the same variable. So my @a = @b = (1, 2, 3); cmp_deeply(\@a, \@b); will pass because @a and @b have the same elements however cmp_deeply(\@a, shallow(\@b)) will fail because although \@a and \@b both contain C<1, 2, 3> they are references to different arrays. =head3 noclass($thing) $thing is a structure to be compared against. This makes Test::Deep ignore the class of objects, so it just looks at the data they contain. Class checking will be turned off until Test::Deep is finished comparing C<$got_v> against C<$thing>. Once Test::Deep comes out of C<$thing> it will go back to it's previous setting for checking class. This can be useful when you want to check that objects have been constructed correctly but you don't want to write lots of C<bless>es. If @people is an array of Person objects then cmp_deeply(\@people, noclass([ bless {name => 'John', phone => '555-5555'}, "Person", bless {name => 'Anne', phone => '444-4444'}, "Person", ])); can be replaced with cmp_deeply(\@people, noclass([ {name => 'John', phone => '555-5555'}, {name => 'Anne', phone => '444-4444'} ])); However, this is testing so you should also check that the objects are blessed correctly. You could use a map to bless all those hashes or you could do a second test like cmp_deeply(\@people, array_each(isa("Person")); =head3 useclass($thing) This turns back on the class comparison while inside a noclass(). cmp_deeply( $got, noclass( [ useclass( $object ) ] ) ) In this example the class of the array reference in C<$got> is ignored but the class of C<$object> is checked, as is the class of everything inside C<$object>. =head3 re($regexp, $capture_data, $flags) $regexp is either a regular expression reference produced with C<qr/.../> or a string which will be used to construct a regular expression. $capture_data is optional and is used to check the strings captured by an regex. This should can be an array ref or a Test::Deep comparator that works on array refs. $flags is an optional string which controls whether the regex runs as a global match. If $flags is "g" then the regex will run as m/$regexp/g. Without $capture_data, this simply compares $got_v with the regular expression provided. So cmp_deeply($got, [ re("ferg") ]) is the equivalent of $got->[0] =~ /ferg/ With $capture_data cmp_deeply($got, [re($regex, $capture_data)]) is the equivalent of my @data = $got->[0] =~ /$regex/; cmp_deeply(\@data, $capture_data); So you can do something simple like cmp_deeply($got, re(qr/(\d\d)(\w\w)/, [25, "ab" ])) to check that (\d\d) was 25 and (\w\w) was "ab" but you can also use Test::Deep objects to do more complex testing of the captured values cmp_deeply("cat=2,dog=67,sheep=3,goat=2,dog=5", re(qr/(\D+)=\d+,?/, set(qw( cat sheep dog )), "g")) here, the regex will match the string and will capture the animal names and check that they match the specified set, in this case it will fail, complaining that "goat" is not in the set. =head3 superhashof(\%hash) This will check that the hash C<%$got> is a "super-hash" of C<%hash>. That is that all the key and value pairs in C<%hash> appear in C<%$got> but C<%$got> can have extra ones also. For example cmp_deeply({a => 1, b => 2}, superhashof({a => 1})) will pass but cmp_deeply({a => 1, b => 2}, superhashof({a => 1, c => 3})) will fail. =head3 subhashof(\%hash) This will check that the hash C<%$got> is a "sub-hash" of C<%hash>. That is that all the key and value pairs in C<%$got> also appear in C<%hash>. For example cmp_deeply({a => 1}, subhashof({a => 1, b => 2})) will pass but cmp_deeply({a => 1, c => 3}, subhashof({a => 1, b => 2})) will fail. =head3 bag(@elements) @elements is an array of elements. This does a bag comparison, that is, it compares two arrays but ignores the order of the elements so cmp_deeply([1, 2, 2], bag(2, 2, 1)) will be a pass. The object returned by bag() has an add() method. my $bag = bag(1, 2, 3); $bag->add(2, 3, 4); will result in a bag containing 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4. C<NOTE> If you use certain special comparisons within a bag or set comparison there is a danger that a test will fail when it should have passed. It can only happen if two or more special comparisons in the bag are competing to match elements. Consider this comparison cmp_deeply(['furry', 'furball'], bag(re("^fur"), re("furb"))) There are two things that could happen, hopefully C<re("^fur")> is paired with "furry" and C<re("^furb")> is paired with "furb" and everything is fine but it could happen that C<re("^fur")> is paired with "furball" and then C<re("^furb")> cannot find a match and so the test fails. Examples of other competing comparisons are C<bag(1, 2, 2)> vs C<set(1, 2)> and C<< methods(m1 => "v1", m2 => "v2") >> vs C<< methods(m1 => "v1") >> This problem is could be solved by using a slower and more complicated algorithm for set and bag matching. Something for the future... =head3 set(@elements) @elements is an array of elements. This does a set comparison, that is, it compares two arrays but ignores the order of the elements and it ignores duplicate elements, so cmp_deeply([1, 2, 2, 3], set(3, 2, 1, 1)) will be a pass. The object returned by set() has an add() method. my $set = set(1, 2); $set->add(1, 3, 1); will result in a set containing 1, 2, 3. C<NOTE> See the NOTE on the bag() comparison for some dangers in using special comparisons inside set() =head3 superbagof(@elements), subbagof(@elements), supersetof(@elements), subsetof(@elements) and noneof(@elements) @elements is an array of elements. These do exactly what you'd expect them to do, so for example cmp_deeply($data, subbagof(1, 1, 3, 4)); checks that @$data contains at most 2 "1"s, 1 "3" and 1 "4" and cmp_deeply($data, supersetof(1, 1, 1, 4)); will check that @$data has at least one "1" and at least one "4". cmp_deeply($data, noneof(1, 2, 3)); will check that @$data does not contain any instances of "1", "2" or "3". These are just special cases of the Set and Bag comparisons so they also give you an add() method and they also have the same limitations when using special comparisons inside them (see the NOTE in the bag() section). =head3 all(@expecteds) @expecteds is an array of expected structures. This allows you to compare data against multiple expected results and make sure each of them matches. cmp_deeply($got, all(isa("Person"), methods(name => 'John'))) is equivalent to $got->isa("Person") $got->name eq 'John' If either test fails then the whole thing is considered a fail. This is a short-circuit test, the testing is stopped after the first failure, although in the future it may complete all tests so that diagnostics can be output for all failures. When reporting failure, the parts are counted from 1. Thanks to the magic of overloading, you can write any( re("^wi"), all(isa("Person"), methods(name => 'John')) ) as re("^wi") | isa("Person") & methods(name => 'John') Note B<single> | not double, as || cannot be overloaded. This will only work when there is a special comparison involved. If you write "john" | "anne" | "robert" Perl will turn this into "{onort" which is presumably not what you wanted. This is because Perl |s them together as strings before Test::Deep gets a chance to do any overload tricks. =head3 any(@expecteds) @expecteds is an array of expected structures. This can be used to compare data against multiple expected results and make sure that at least one of them matches. This is a short-circuit test so if a test passes then none of the tests after that will be attempted. You can also use overloading with | similarly to all(). =head3 isa($class), Isa($class) $class is a class name. This uses UNIVERSAL::isa() to check that $got_v is blessed into the class $class. B<NOTE:> Isa() does exactly as documented here, but isa() is slightly different. If isa() is called with 1 argument it falls through to Isa(). If isa() called with 2 arguments, it falls through to UNIVERSAL::isa. This is to prevent breakage when you import isa() into a package that is used as a class. Without this, anyone calling C<Class-E<gt>isa($other_class)> would get the wrong answer. This is a hack to patch over the fact that isa is exported by default. =head3 obj_isa($class) This test accepts only objects that are instances of C<$class> or a subclass. Unlike the C<Isa> test, this test will never accept class names. =head3 array_each($thing) $thing is a structure to be compared against. <$got_v> must be an array reference. Each element of it will be compared to $thing. This is useful when you have an array of similar things, for example objects of a known type and you don't want to have to repeat the same test for each one. my $common_tests = all( isa("MyFile"), methods( handle => isa("IO::Handle") filename => re("^/home/ted/tmp"), ) ); cmp_deeply($got, array_each($common_tests)); is similar to foreach my $got_v (@$got) { cmp_deeply($got_v, $common_tests) } Except it will not explode if $got is not an array reference. It will check that each of the objects in @$got is a MyFile and that each one gives the correct results for it's methods. You could go further, if for example there were 3 files and you knew the size of each one you could do this cmp_deeply( $got, all( array_each($common_tests), [ methods(size => 1000), methods(size => 200), methods(size => 20) ] ) ) cmp_deeply($got, array_each($structure)); =head3 hash_each($thing) This test behaves like C<array_each> (see above) but tests that each hash value passes its tests. =head3 str($string) $string is a string. This will stringify C<$got_v> and compare it to C<$string> using C<eq>, even if $got_v is a ref. It is useful for checking the stringified value of an overloaded reference. =head3 num($number, $tolerance) $number is a number. $tolerance is an optional number. This will add 0 to C<$got_v> and check if it's numerically equal to C<$number>, even if $got_v is a ref. It is useful for checking the numerical value of an overloaded reference. If $tolerance is supplied then this will check that $got_v and $exp_v are less than $tolerance apart. This is useful when comparing floating point numbers as rounding errors can make it hard or impossible for $got_v to be exactly equal to $exp_v. When $tolerance is supplied, the test passes if C<abs($got_v - $exp_v) <= $tolerance>. B<Note> in Perl, C<"12blah" == 12> because Perl will be smart and convert "12blah" into 12. You may not want this. There was a strict mode but that is now gone. A "lookslike s number" test will replace it soon. Until then you can usually just use the string() comparison to be more strict. This will work fine for almost all situations, however it will not work when <$got_v> is an overloaded value who's string and numerical values differ. =head3 bool($value) $value is anything you like but it's probably best to use 0 or 1 This will check that C<$got_v> and C<$value> have the same truth value, that is they will give the same result when used in boolean context, like in an if() statement. =head3 code(\&subref) \&subref is a reference to a subroutine which will be passed a single argument, it then should return a true or false and possibly a string This will pass C<$got_v> to the subroutine which returns true or false to indicate a pass or fail. Fails can be accompanied by a diagnostic string which gives an explanation of why it's a fail. sub check_name { my $name = shift; if ($boss->likes($name)) { return 1; } else { return (0, "the boss doesn't like your name"); } } cmp_deeply("Brian", code(\&check_name)); =head1 DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTIONS =head3 my $reason = deep_diag($stack) C<$stack> is a value returned by cmp_details. Do not call this function if cmp_details returned a true value for C<$ok>. deep_diag() returns a human readable string describing how the comparison failed. =head1 ANOTHER EXAMPLE You've written a module to handle people and their film interests. Say you have a function that returns an array of people from a query, each person is a hash with 2 keys: Name and Age and the array is sorted by Name. You can do cmp_deeply( $result, [ {Name => 'Anne', Age => 26}, {Name => "Bill", Age => 47} {Name => 'John', Age => 25}, ] ); Soon after, your query function changes and all the results now have an ID field. Now your test is failing again because you left out ID from each of the hashes. The problem is that the IDs are generated by the database and you have no way of knowing what each person's ID is. With Test::Deep you can change your query to cmp_deeply( $result, [ {Name => 'John', Age => 25, ID => ignore()}, {Name => 'Anne', Age => 26, ID => ignore()}, {Name => "Bill", Age => 47, ID => ignore()} ] ); But your test still fails. Now, because you're using a database, you no longer know what order the people will appear in. You could add a sort into the database query but that could slow down your application. Instead you can get Test::Deep to ignore the order of the array by doing a bag comparison instead. cmp_deeply( $result, bag( {Name => 'John', Age => 25, ID => ignore()}, {Name => 'Anne', Age => 26, ID => ignore()}, {Name => "Bill", Age => 47, ID => ignore()} ) ); Finally person gets even more complicated and includes a new field called Movies, this is a list of movies that the person has seen recently, again these movies could also come back in any order so we need a bag inside our other bag comparison, giving us something like cmp_deeply( $result, bag( {Name => 'John', Age => 25, ID => ignore(), Movies => bag(...)}, {Name => 'Anne', Age => 26, ID => ignore(), Movies => bag(...)}, {Name => "Bill", Age => 47, ID => ignore(), Movies => bag(...)} ) ); =head1 USING TEST::DEEP WITH TEST::BUILDER Combining C<cmp_details> and C<test_diag> makes it possible to use Test::Deep in your own test classes. In a L<Test::Builder> subclass, create a test method in the following form: sub behaves_ok { my $self = shift; my $expected = shift; my $test_name = shift; my $got = do_the_important_work_here(); my ($ok, $stack) = cmp_details($got, $expected); unless ($Test->ok($ok, $test_name)) { my $diag = deep_diag($stack); $Test->diag($diag); } } As the subclass defines a test class, not tests themselves, make sure it uses L<Test::Deep::NoTest>, not C<Test::Deep> itself. =head1 LIMITATIONS Currently any CODE, GLOB or IO refs will be compared using shallow(), which means only their memory addresses are compared. =head1 BUGS There is a bug in set and bag compare to do with competing SCs. It only occurs when you put certain special comparisons inside bag or set comparisons you don't need to worry about it. The full details are in the bag() docs. It will be fixed in an upcoming version. =head1 WHAT ARE SPECIAL COMPARISONS? A special comparison (SC) is simply an object that inherits from Test::Deep::Cmp. Whenever C<$expected_v> is an SC then instead of checking C<$got_v eq $expected_v>, we pass control over to the SC and let it do it's thing. Test::Deep exports lots of SC constructors, to make it easy for you to use them in your test scripts. For example is C<re("hello")> is just a handy way of creating a Test::Deep::Regexp object that will match any string containing "hello". So cmp_deeply([ 'a', 'b', 'hello world'], ['a', 'b', re("^hello")]); will check C<'a' eq 'a'>, C<'b' eq 'b'> but when it comes to comparing C<'hello world'> and C<re("^hello")> it will see that $expected_v is an SC and so will pass control to the Test::Deep::Regexp class by do something like C<< $expected_v->descend($got_v) >>. The C<descend()> method should just return true or false. This gives you enough to write your own SCs but I haven't documented how diagnostics works because it's about to get an overhaul. =head1 EXPORTS By default, Test::Deep will export everything in its C<v0> tag, as if you had written: use Test::Deep ':v0'; Those things are: all any array array_each arrayelementsonly arraylength arraylengthonly bag blessed bool cmp_bag cmp_deeply cmp_methods cmp_set code eq_deeply hash hash_each hashkeys hashkeysonly ignore Isa isa listmethods methods noclass none noneof num obj_isa re reftype regexpmatches regexponly regexpref regexprefonly scalarrefonly scalref set shallow str subbagof subhashof subsetof superbagof superhashof supersetof useclass A slightly better set of exports is the C<v1> set. It's all the same things, with the exception of C<Isa> and C<blessed>. If you want to import "everything", you probably want to C<< use Test::Deep ':V1'; >>. There's another magic export group: C<:preload>. If that is specified, all of the Test::Deep plugins will be loaded immediately instead of lazily. =head1 SEE ALSO L<Test::More> =head1 MAINTAINER Ricardo Signes <rjbs@cpan.org> =head1 AUTHOR Fergal Daly E<lt>fergal@esatclear.ieE<gt>, with thanks to Michael G Schwern for Test::More's is_deeply function which inspired this.
