TAP::For...er::Color(3) Perl Programmers Reference Guide TAP::For...er::Color(3)

NAME
     TAP::Formatter::Color - Run Perl test scripts with color

VERSION
     Version 3.52

DESCRIPTION
     Note that this harness is experimental.  You may not like the colors I've
     chosen and I haven't yet provided an easy way to override them.

     This test harness is the same as TAP::Harness, but test results are output
     in color.	Passing tests are printed in green.  Failing tests are in red.
     Skipped tests are blue on a white background and TODO tests are printed in
     white.

     If Term::ANSIColor cannot be found (and Win32::Console::ANSI if running un-
     der Windows) tests will be run without color.

SYNOPSIS
      use TAP::Formatter::Color;
      my $harness = TAP::Formatter::Color->new( \%args );
      $harness->runtests(@tests);

METHODS
   Class Methods
     "new"

     The constructor returns a new "TAP::Formatter::Color" object. If Term::AN-
     SIColor is not installed, returns undef.

     "can_color"

       Test::Formatter::Color->can_color()

     Returns a boolean indicating whether or not this module can actually gener-
     ate colored output. This will be false if it could not load the modules
     needed for the current platform.

     "set_color"

     Set the output color.
