Test::HTML::Lint(3)

NAME
Test::HTML::Lint - Test::More-style wrapper around HTML::Lint

VERSION
Version 2.22

SYNOPSIS
    use Test::HTML::Lint tests => 4;

    my $table = build_display_table();
    html_ok( $table, 'Built display table properly' );

DESCRIPTION
This module provides a few convenience methods for testing exception based code. It is built with Test::Builder and plays happily with Test::More and friends.

If you are not already familiar with Test::More now would be the time to go take a look.

EXPORT
"html_ok"

  html_ok( [$lint, ] $html, $name )
Checks to see if $html is a valid HTML document, including checks for having "<html>", "<head>", "<title>>" and "<body>" tags.

If you're checking something that is only a fragment of an HTML document, use "html_fragment_ok()".

If you pass an HTML::Lint object, "html_ok()" will use that for its settings.

    my $lint = new HTML::Lint( only_types => STRUCTURE );
    html_ok( $lint, $content, "Web page passes structural tests only" );

Otherwise, it will use the default rules.

    html_ok( $content, "Web page passes ALL tests" );

Note that if you pass in your own HTML::Lint object, "html_ok()" will clear its errors before using it.

  html_fragment_ok( [$lint, ] $html, $name )
Checks that $fragment is valid HTML, but not necessarily a valid HTML document.

For example, this is a valid fragment, but not a valid HTML document:

    <body>
        <p>Lorem ipsum</p>
    </body>

because it doesn't contain "<html>" and "<head>" tags. If you want to check that it is a valid document, use "html_ok()".

If you pass an HTML::Lint object, "html_fragment_ok()" will use that for its settings.

    my $lint = new HTML::Lint( only_types => STRUCTURE );
    html_fragment_ok( $lint, $content, 'Web page passes structural tests only' );

Otherwise, it will use the default rules.

    html_fragment_ok( $content, 'Fragment passes ALL tests' );

Note that if you pass in your own HTML::Lint object, "html_fragment_ok()" will clear its errors before using it.

BUGS
All bugs and requests are now being handled through GitHub.

    https://github.com/petdance/html-lint/issues

DO NOT send bug reports to http://rt.cpan.org/ or http://code.google.com/

TO DO
There needs to be a "html_table_ok()" to check that the HTML is a self-contained, well-formed table, and then a comparable one for "html_page_ok()".

If you think this module should do something that it doesn't do at the moment please let me know.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Thanks to chromatic and Michael G Schwern for the excellent Test::Builder, without which this module wouldn't be possible.

Thanks to Adrian Howard for writing Test::Exception, from which most of this module is taken.
